What are the prevention methods for hernia in children?

Nowadays, children are the treasures of every household. They are held in the hands for fear of dropping them, and held in the mouths for fear of melting them. I felt a little uncomfortable and my whole family couldn’t eat or sleep well. Indeed, children are young and have poor resistance, so they are easily affected by diseases and need all kinds of care from adults. Here I will introduce the prevention and treatment of pediatric hernia, I hope it will be helpful to you.

1. Prevention

1. Since hernia can occur in infancy, you should always pay attention to your child's groin or scrotum during this period to see if it is swollen or if there is a lump that appears and disappears from time to time. If you have any questions, consult a doctor in time.

2. Although hernias are more common in boys, girls can also get them. We should be more vigilant about hernia in girls because the ovaries and fallopian tubes often enter the hernia sac.

3. Do not wrap the baby's abdomen too tightly during infancy to avoid increasing intra-abdominal pressure. Do not let your child stand up too early to prevent the intestine from falling and forming an inguinal hernia.

4. Eat easily digestible foods rich in fiber to keep bowel movements smooth. When a child has dry stools, laxative measures should be taken and the child should not be forced to strain to defecate.

5. Don’t let your child cough loudly. Children with cough should take cough suppressants under the guidance of a doctor. Avoid letting your child cry loudly to prevent increased abdominal pressure.

II. Treatment

Children's hernia treatment belt can be used to treat children's hernia (each set includes: 1 shorts, 1 Chinese medicine bag). It is easy to use. Scope of application: suitable for various types of hernia such as oblique hernia, direct hernia, and knife-edge hernia.

Introduction: Hernia treatment belt is the safest and most effective specialized equipment for hernia patients. It can only play an auxiliary role in treatment and achieve the purpose after being fixed by the instrument. This product has the advantages of no surgery, no hospitalization, low cost, no pain, no toxic side effects, easy to use, and does not interfere with children's normal play.

The band is passed through the perineum and connected to the front of the abdomen and the waist belt respectively (when the band passes through the perineum, do not press on the scrotum and testicles). First, return the swelling in the hernia patient's groin or scrotum to the abdominal cavity (let the patient lie flat on the bed and gently return it with the hand), then place the No. 1 ball holder on the patient's inner inguinal ring (the junction of the belt and the waist belt in front of the abdomen) and fix it at the junction of the belt and the waist belt. It plays the role of warming yang, dispersing cold and bringing leaked substances back into the body. In the second stage, the No. 2 ball holder is placed to achieve the purpose of regulating Qi and consolidating the treatment. If there is hernia on both sides, the No. 1 and No. 2 ball holders can be placed respectively.

The above is the prevention and treatment of hernia in children. Parents cannot wait until their children suffer from a certain disease before paying attention to it. This is too passive. It is best to have a general understanding of the diseases that children are prone to at different stages. In this way, once the child has certain symptoms, they will know that it may be a certain disease and take some necessary measures. This is more proactive and can effectively reduce the time for the child to treat the disease and make the child suffer less.
