Femoral hernia: Small bag of thigh root, early detection requires early treatment.

[Hey, how can I bulge a table tennis bag here at the root of my thigh and press it back?]

[What’s going on? I pulled my leg when I went dancing in the square yesterday, and then I felt a little bulging at night. Today I got up and became a ping pong ball. Does it hurt? [It doesn’t feel painful or itchy, but it hurts when moving things and coughing.] [You have a hernia, go to see a doctor quickly.] Alas, how can you get sick even if you dance in the square?

Is hernia a what thing?

The hernia that ordinary people usually say looks like a bulge that can be pressed back on the surface. It feels no big deal. But this is not the kind of green bag whose head hits the door and bulges.

In fact, the green bag is a little congestion, congestion is absorbed by the body for a long time, and the bag fades away. The bulge of hernia can be full of organs in the stomach, not only will not fade automatically, but also may become bigger and bigger. Some organs in the stomach may even be stuck there, causing severe pain and even tissue ischemia and necrosis.

How did hernia come about?

There is a thin protective membrane on the surface of the organs in our stomachs, called peritoneum. This membrane is not smooth and uniform inside the stomachs, but is thin and thick. If you cough hard, constipate or carry heavy objects, the intra-abdominal pressure increases, which may push organ tissues to the weaker part of the peritoneum.

This principle is just like a tire. After the outer tire is damaged, the inner tube will bulge from the damaged place due to pressure. The same is true for hernia. The intestines and fat in the abdominal wall will bulge through the weak abdominal wall to form a sac. A section of small intestine or other tissues will be squeezed into the sac, thus forming a hernia.

There are many kinds of hernia, one of which is called femoral hernia, which is more common in middle-aged and elderly women.

[Thigh] means [thigh]. In the groin at the junction of the thigh and the body of the human body, there is a place called the femoral ring, which is a weak part of the peritoneum.

Because the pressure in a woman’s stomach increases after pregnancy, the risk of hernia formation increases, and the intestines in the stomach are easy to protrude outward through the femoral ring to form hernia, so it is called femoral hernia.

At first, femoral hernia generally has no obvious symptoms of what, and most of them are discovered by chance. Because the massive head of femoral hernia is often small, especially for fat people, it is less easy to detect.

However, due to the large number of ligaments at the site where femoral hernia occurs, it is easy to get stuck and incarcerated, which will cause obvious pain. If you do not seek medical treatment in time, it may cause intestinal obstruction and even endanger your life seriously.

So how can we prevent femoral hernia?

1. Life should be optimistic and cheerful at ordinary times. When you are in a good mood, you will not find diseases.

2. Adhere to appropriate, moderate and timely exercise, dancing square dance is a good choice, but don’t do violent jumping, stretching and pulling movements, otherwise maybe a strong force, the bag will bulge up. At ordinary times, also want to avoid coughing hard, or carrying too heavy things, the reason is the same.

3. Pay attention to diet conditioning. It is advisable to eat warm, cooked and soft, eat less and eat more, prevent oversatiety, choose foods rich in nutrition and easy to digest and absorb, and reduce the burden on intestines and stomach.

4. Prevent constipation and keep stool unblocked is the key to prevent hernia. The abdominal wall of the elderly is weak. Due to constipation and defecation, it is easy to form hernia by increasing abdominal pressure.

What should I do after finding hernia?

There are a lot of aunt found hernia block after feel no pain, also didn’t care. Until stuck, pain can’t go to the hospital. At this time, the situation may have been more critical. Therefore, if the problem is found, should seek medical treatment as soon as possible, early detection, early treatment.

Because femoral hernia is especially easy to incarcerate, so after diagnosis, surgery is generally adopted as soon as possible. The surgeon will plug the protruding organ back to its original position and then repair the weak peritoneal part. This operation is minimally invasive and can be recovered soon.
