Patient's question:
The child often has stomach pain. Today, he had a fever and got an injection, and it was said to be caused by a sore throat. So, what is the reason for his stomach pain? Could it be pediatric hernia?Doctor's answer:
Hello! Based on the described situation, this may be related to mesenteric lymphadenitis. It's recommended to check an abdominal ultrasound to confirm the diagnosis. In general, after hernia surgery, recurrence is relatively rare. However, parents should pay close attention to postoperative care and try to avoid situations where the child with an inguinal hernia cries, coughs, suffers from constipation, or engages in strenuous exercise. After surgery, it's important to increase nutrition and encourage the child to eat some foods that boost qi.
