After the baby was diagnosed with umbilical hernia, the parents were also concerned that the baby would experience other physical problems due to the impact of umbilical hernia, such as frequent constipation, while treating him. If a baby has constipation problems, it may bring more harm to their body. So, can infantile umbilical hernia cause constipation?
Infant umbilical hernia does not cause constipation, and there is no direct connection between constipation and umbilical hernia. Do not assume that umbilical hernia will cause constipation in infants. However, parents should also pay attention to the issue of umbilical hernia and adopt different treatment methods according to the degree of umbilical hernia. If the umbilical hernia problem is more serious, surgery should be considered for the baby.
Normally, constipation in infants is related to daily diet, feeding methods, and other factors. If you don't want your baby to have constipation, you can give them more water in daily life, especially for babies who drink a lot of formula. Breastfeeded babies should also be regularly fed water to prevent constipation caused by dry stools.
Baby umbilical hernia, constipation, and other diseases are not good for their health. If parents want to help their baby with these problems, they must use the correct and effective methods. If the correct and effective methods are not used, the baby's umbilical hernia, constipation, and other diseases will become increasingly serious.
