What to do if your child has leaky intestines

The baby's health is the focus of attention of all family members. We can also find in the hospital that there are always many patients in the pediatric department, especially during the flu period. Since infants and young children have weaker resistance, they are more susceptible to bacterial infections, and the probability of infants and young children catching a cold is also higher than that of adults. In addition to colds, another type of disease is intestinal leakage in children. What are the symptoms of leaky gut in children and how can it be treated?

Leaky gut is also called herniated gut . It is more obvious when the baby is crying or moving more. Sometimes the baby will feel pain, and sometimes it will disappear automatically if you just push it up gently with your hands. If the baby has leaky intestines, surgical treatment is recommended. Other treatment options are not only ineffective, but the baby will suffer. I know that this type of surgery at Puding Friendship Hospital is very effective, and it is a minimally invasive surgery, and has no effect on the baby.

Herniation is the common name for the surgical disease small intestinal hernia. The specific symptom is that the small intestine bulges out from the abdominal wall when it is squeezed. It is a common surgical disease that occurs in patients of all ages, especially in infants and young children, where the incidence is very high.

When there is a weak part in the abdominal wall, it is difficult for this part to withstand abdominal pressure. If you encounter constipation, straining, coughing, excessive exercise, heavy physical labor, crying children, etc., the abdominal pressure suddenly increases, the small intestine will be squeezed and bulge out of the abdominal wall. Among people of all age groups, infants and young children have the highest chance of suffering from herniation. Adults usually suffer from herniation due to sports, labor injuries, surgical incisions, etc. If they are elderly, abdominal wall atrophy can also cause herniation. The elderly are also a high-risk group for herniation.

If you have a hernia, you will experience symptoms when the abdominal pressure increases. The symptoms will gradually ease after the abdominal pressure decreases, but the long-term impact on your health is significant. If not treated in time, it can be very dangerous. If a hernia persists for a long time and is not treated, the symptoms will not be as simple as the pain of bulging small intestine. It will also cause many problems. The pain will intensify over time, and it will also affect the digestive system and even reproductive function. It should not be taken lightly. One of the more serious symptoms of hernia is that if it is not treated for a long time or is treated improperly, it can easily lead to incarceration. At this time, the small intestine is stuck and cannot return to the abdominal cavity, which can easily cause serious complications such as intestinal obstruction and intestinal necrosis, and endanger life. How to treat hernia? There are two ways to treat hernia: surgical treatment and conservative treatment. Many patients do not know that hernia can be treated conservatively, and they have surgery, but the results are often not good. If the symptoms are not serious, most patients can be treated conservatively, which is safer than surgery and has more stable results. Early hernia is not serious, the bulge can return to its original position normally, and it has little impact on the body. At this time, using a hernia belt for treatment can achieve good therapeutic effects. After 1-2 courses of treatment, the abdominal wall membrane is completely healed, the small intestine will no longer prolapse, and the hernia is completely cured. It will almost never recur after healing.
