Question
I recently noticed that my baby makes a sound at the root of the right leg when crying, similar to a fart. At first, I thought it was just passing gas, but I only noticed it was coming from the root of the right leg while holding the baby for a nap, and there’s a swelling when crying.
Answer
Based on your description and clinical symptoms, combined with the situation you described, there is no need to worry. I suggest you take your baby to the hospital for further detailed examination. This situation cannot be ruled out as a hernia, and it is recommended that you consult with an orthopedic surgeon, which may require an ultrasound examination. The above is a suggestion for the question “What causes a sound at the root of the right leg when baby cries,” hoping it will be helpful to you, and wishing you and your baby health!
