Patient's question:
At 6.7 months, the child developed a hernia. Previously, pressing it up would make it go back in, but recently it has grown larger and sometimes doesn't return on its own. It only comes back when the child is asleep. At times, the pain is so severe that the child doesn't allow it to be touched, and standing with legs apart becomes difficult.Doctor's answer:
The above condition is a hernia, which may be related to the weakness of local muscle tissue. If this condition gradually worsens, it is advisable to seek medical attention from a surgical department as soon as possible. If conservative treatment is not effective, surgery may be the only option. Prolonged delay could lead to intestinal necrosis. Although the age is young, this condition still requires surgical intervention. The above suggestions are for the question "Hernia at 6.7 months." I hope this is helpful to you.
