Question
A 14-year-old boy can feel a long, thin substance about 5cm in length on the left side of his bladder. Although there are no other symptoms, he still feels it. He has constipation problems, and while he feels slightly relieved after defecation, the issue remains. What kind of symptom is this?
Answer
Based on the description, it may be a hernia or other cysts or abnormalities in the intestinal wall. It is recommended to undergo a color Doppler ultrasound examination at a hospital and pay attention to whether there are other symptoms such as abdominal pain. The diet should be light, avoid spicy foods, and drink plenty of water. Actually, parents should take their child to the hospital for a detailed examination as soon as possible to determine whether it is pathologic or merely a physiological symptom.
