We all know that baby hernia can be treated conservatively with hernia belt except surgery, so can adult hernia be treated conservatively?
The 78-year-old uncle Tian usually likes to go hiking or sightseeing with some old friends, but not long ago, he was rarely seen in the community. Later, I learned that it was because Uncle Tian had inguinal hernia. When he was active, his scrotum would swell like a ball, and even the most basic movements were difficult, so he was basically bedridden. There may be doubts, but hernia will not happen to Uncle Tian. Indeed, Uncle Tian has this phenomenon because the hernia has dragged on for five years, and the old man feels old and afraid of surgery. Always procrastinating. Later, Uncle Tian's family couldn't stand it. After repeated persuasion, Uncle Tian decided to go to the hospital for surgery. After several days of nursing, Uncle Tian can get out of bed.
According to statistics, the probability of elderly people over 75 suffering from hernia disease is as high as 44%, and hernia may form in all parts of the human body. Among all kinds of hernias, inguinal hernia accounts for about 95%, in addition to incisional hernia, umbilical hernia, pelvic floor hernia, diaphragmatic hernia and so on. The performance of hernia in different parts is different, and the performance of hernia in the same part is also very different. Taking inguinal hernia as an example, it is often manifested as a reversible lump in the inguinal region, which appears when walking and standing, and disappears when lying down and resting. But because there is no feeling of discomfort in the early days, many elderly people will not go to see a doctor. With the enlargement of the lump, there will be a feeling of swelling and pain. Severe hernia can cause abdominal pain, incarceration, intestinal obstruction and intestinal necrosis, and even life-threatening.
It is normal for the elderly to worry about surgery. After all, many old people have other diseases to some extent. We know that adult hernia can only be cured by surgery, but adults with heart, lung, liver and hypertension are not suitable for surgery. At this time, we must rely on the hernia belt to relieve the treatment, otherwise the hernia will only become more and more serious if it is allowed to develop freely. In fact, wearing Qu Shanbao's hernia belt is just like wearing clothes. It will not feel oppressive, but will feel comfortable, which can effectively prevent the hernia from getting worse and avoid the danger of hernia incarceration.
Special reminder:
Do not accept non-standard treatment such as "glue injection". Some irregular medical institutions give patients local injection treatment under the banner of "minimally invasive, no surgery", that is, by injecting sclerosing agent and biological glue into the groin to adhere and close the abdominal wall defect. This method can't cure hernia, but it will cause abdominal adhesion, intestinal obstruction, spermatic cord occlusion and vas deferens injury. Especially for young men, blind treatment with sclerosing agent may lead to lifelong infertility.
