Question

My baby is now three months old. Two days ago, he started coughing and has now developed bronchitis pneumonia. He often has a fever at night, with an approximate body temperature of 37 degrees during the day, and is currently hospitalized for treatment. Two days ago, I noticed that one side of my baby’s scrotum has become enlarged while the other side is normal and soft. Both sides were normal at birth, but this condition was only discovered recently. Is this related to his illness? I don’t know what’s wrong, please doctor answer.

Answer

This situation with your baby should be checked to see if it’s a hernia or a hydrocele. It is unrelated to the cough or bronchitis pneumonia. I suggest you take good care of your baby, maintain moderate indoor humidity, give your baby enough water, and take medication on time. The issue you mentioned may require a check-up by a doctor in the surgery department to determine if it’s a hernia or a hydrocele. It doesn’t seem very obvious, so don’t worry too much. The above suggestions are for the question ‘My baby is now three months old,’ hoping they will be helpful to you, and wish you health!
