During the process of a child's physical growth, it is inevitable that they will fall ill and experience some abnormal symptoms. As a mother, don't panic when facing your child's illness. Instead, find ways to learn more about common knowledge about the disease so that you can make preliminary judgments on your own when your child is sick. How to distinguish hydrocele in children?
Due to the common occurrence of hydrocele and hernia in children, and the similarity between the two diseases, many mothers tend to confuse them. In fact, hydrocele and hernia are two different types of diseases. Mothers can use a flashlight to shine on their children's scrotum. If it is hydrocele, the scrotum will appear translucent and have a certain degree of luster, while hernia is a substantial substance that does not transmit light.
Both hydrocele and hernia are common diseases in children, and mothers should pay enough attention to them. Hernia is mainly caused by congenital developmental abnormalities, and the pathogenesis of hydrocele is relatively complex, including trauma, infection, genetics, and other factors.
When a mother discovers that her child has hydrocele, do not panic and actively seek medical treatment with the child. Mild hydrocele may slowly self absorb, while more severe hydrocele requires surgical treatment. When children are young, mothers should pay attention to observing their scrotum in order to detect and treat the condition in a timely manner.
