Question

Two days ago, a gas embolism was found below the baby’s body, and it becomes larger during crying and fussing.

Answer

This condition may be caused by an inguinal hernia, which presents as a reusable mass in the inguinal region, typically appearing during standing or labor and disappearing after rest and lying flat. An external examination should be conducted for diagnosis, and surgery may be considered. For pediatric hernias, general treatment is necessary. Parents need to use the correct methods to help their children recover quickly and avoid affecting their growth and development. Therefore, it is recommended that parents pay attention to their child’s condition and seek medical attention promptly.
