1, because the boy's testicles descend to the scrotum through the inguinal canal before birth, and the peritoneum that moves downwards forms a sheath-like process.
2. When the baby's sheath process is not occluded after birth, or the occlusion is incomplete, it becomes a larger cavity, and the contents of the abdominal cavity will protrude from here to the body surface, forming hernia.
3. Because the right testis descends a little later than the left, the atresia of the sheath process is also late, and there are more inguinal hernias on the right.
If you have symptoms of suspected hernia in children, you must go to the hospital for examination in time. Dr. Huang Yongnan from the First Hospital of Quanzhou has many years' advice on treating hernia. You can consult if it is convenient. The child's hernia can't wait, so it should be treated in time.
