Patient's question:
However, I noticed a hard lump on the right upper part of his genitalia. When he's not crying, it's not too big, but when he cries, it becomes larger. Why is this happening? How can it be improved? Does it have any negative effects on the baby?Doctor's answer:
According to the analysis of the content: A lump that reappears on the outer upper part of the genital area of a child during crying is often a hernia. This area is relatively weak during growth and development, and the pathway for the testicular ascent in male infants closes later. It is recommended that if the diagnosis is a hernia, a hernia belt or truss can be used to prevent the child from crying frequently. Manual massage can also be performed to strengthen the muscles and promote closure. The above suggestions are for the question "What is the hard lump above the genital area of a two-month-old baby?" and it is hoped that it will be helpful to you. Wishing you good health!
