Hernia is a common disease in infants and young children. If the hernia is not severe, it can recover on its own when the child grows up, while severe hernias require surgical treatment. Postoperative care should be done well, otherwise it is easy to experience hernia and fluid accumulation. So, what should we do if there is fluid accumulation in children with hernias?
Hernia effusion is usually caused by infection due to lack of care after surgery, or it may be due to imperfect surgical procedures resulting in some sequelae. In this case, the patient should first go to the hospital for examination, and then receive targeted treatment according to different situations. Generally, based on the patient's condition, when the fluid accumulation is low, methods such as anti infection and thermal therapy can be used for treatment.
The abdominal wall of young babies is very weak, so it is very easy to develop hernias, which means that organs such as the intestines protrude from the intestinal wall. In severe cases, surgical treatment should be chosen in a timely manner to avoid delaying the condition.
After undergoing hernia surgery, it is necessary to pay attention to daily care. The child should wear a hernia band, and intravenous anti-inflammatory medication should be administered after the surgery to prevent infection. Otherwise, it is likely to cause other diseases in the body and requires continued treatment. If there is fluid accumulation after hernia surgery, it is necessary to promptly go to a regular hospital for treatment.
