Patient's question:
In the past two months, the baby suddenly started crying frequently and endlessly for no reason. Sometimes, they also experienced vomiting and fever. At first, we thought it was a stomach issue, but later they started urinating blood, which scared us. We quickly took them to the hospital for a thorough examination and found out that the baby had infantile hernia. However, even after the surgery, they still vomited.What kind of help is needed: What should be done about vomiting after infantile hernia surgery?
Doctor's answer:
Discharge Instructions:① Regarding diet, you can eat more nutrient-rich foods. Consume more roughage foods such as chives, celery, cabbage, coarse grains, beans, bamboo shoots, and various fruits, etc., to maintain regular bowel movements.
② After discharge, pay attention to rest and engage in appropriate exercise and physical activities, such as doing health-preserving exercises, practicing Tai Chi, walking, or jogging. Maintaining good lifestyle habits and regular activity not only promotes health but also stabilizes the patient's mood. Generally, avoid heavy physical labor for 3 months.
③ Be mindful of preventing colds and coughs by avoiding exposure to cold. If you experience difficulties with urination or defecation, seek timely treatment to prevent increased intra-abdominal pressure and the onset of hernia.
