Many parents and friends with sons may encounter such a strange thing: bath or diaper change found that the baby’s scrotum and the location next to the protrusion of a piece of soft to the touch, especially when the baby cries, protrusion is more obvious, gently push a hand or let the baby lie down, protrusion will disappear. What is this all about? If this is the case, consider whether your baby has a scrotal hernia! A scrotal hernia is a type of hernia that usually occurs when an intra-abdominal organ (e.g., small intestine, large intestine, large omentum, appendix, etc.) protrudes outward from the inguinal canal or directly into the scrotum. This type of hernia is characterized by a protrusion that occurs sporadically and tends to appear at times of increased abdominal pressure, such as when the child cries, coughs, defecates, or urinates. As the protruding organs are mostly small intestines, they feel soft to the touch, or a gurgling sound can be heard when pushed back. The disease is most common in children, its sporadic, push a push can go back to the characteristics of the symptoms so that many parents to relax vigilance, think do not need to pay attention to. In fact, the disease has a wide range of effects on children: first, it affects the digestive system of the child, there may be lower abdominal distension, abdominal pain, constipation and other gastrointestinal discomforts; secondly, it also affects the genitourinary system of the child, there may be a hernia squeezing testicles or affecting the blood supply to affect the normal development of the reproductive system; in severe cases, there may be incarcerated hernias, intestinal obstruction, intestinal necrosis, severe pain in the abdomen, and other dangerous situations. (c) The condition is not a serious one, but it can be treated in a conservative manner. The treatment of this disease includes conservative and surgical treatments. Conservative therapy mainly includes drug therapy (such as Chinese medicine cinnamon powder external application, oral Chinese patent medicine tonifying the middle and beneficial qi, etc.) and hernia belt therapy (can effectively prevent the development of hernia, but can only treat reversible small intestinal hernia), while surgery is the only way to cure the disease. The choice of treatment can depend on the specific condition of the child, mild can be preceded by conservative treatment, if the effect is not good or more serious should be considered as soon as possible surgical treatment.
