Afterwards, symptoms of reproductive organ disease will occur, and the child is very young, so once hernia occurs, it is not easy to treat. So we must control boys’ crying, so what’s the matter with the angry eggs?

Hernia, medically known as hernia. It is when an organ or tissue in the human body leaves its normal anatomical position and enters another part through a congenital or acquired weakness, defect or gap. The formation of hernia has a lot to do with the patient's physique. Hernia can be caused by reasons such as coughing, sneezing, excessive force, abdominal obesity, excessive force during bowel movements, pregnancy, excessive crying in children, and degenerative changes in the strength of the abdominal wall in the elderly.

Symptoms of hernia

The most common clinical hernia is the inguinal hernia. A lump can be seen or felt in the groin area, which can be recovered by lying down. Infants are usually discovered by their mothers when they are changing their diapers, while older children are more often discovered when they are taking a bath. The cause of the lump is increased abdominal pressure, such as crying, coughing, defecation, urination, etc. Older children can be asked to stand up and apply force to the abdomen, which can also induce a lump to appear in the groin area, and some will reach the scrotum or labia. The lump is formed by the prolapse of organs in the abdominal cavity into the hernia bag. The prolapsed organs are mostly small intestines, so they feel soft to the touch. Other parts such as the large intestine, appendix, and omentum may also prolapse. In women, ovarian prolapse is more common, so a thumb-sized, hard, and often tender lump can often be felt. In addition to being able to see or touch the lump, some children may experience constipation, loss of appetite, spitting up, etc., while others may be prone to crying and become restless.

Hernia Treatment

1. Non-surgical treatment

Children under one year old do not need surgery for the time being because the hernia may disappear on its own. A hernia belt can be used to compress the deep ring.

2. Surgery

If hernia is not treated promptly, the hernia mass may gradually increase in size, the symptoms may worsen, and even incarceration or strangulation may occur, threatening the patient's life. Therefore, surgical treatment should be performed as soon as possible.
