today my 6 weeks old boy had opertion for inguinal hernia & circumcision at the same time......?

Question

And thanks to GOD Almighty it was successful but we are worried becouse he is crying allot may be he is feeling too much pain or what but doctor injected a pain killer after 6 hours
again to relieve his pain may be they thoughts it was needed........for now he is still crying and in the hospital what do you think........is it normal.........or should i talk to a different doctor over this......?

Answer 1

its normal, just hold your baby and comfort him. he will be fine. My son had the same operation at 6 weeks too. the hardest part was the operation.

Answer 2

this was a very difficult two surgeries for a little guy. In USA doctor gives something for pain every 4 hours, so maybe the 6 hours for the next shot is too long. Ask the Doctor the next time he comes to the room. Pain should only be bad for two or three days anyway so you can get through this. Thankfully the baby boy never remembers when this is done at 6 weeks. It is better to do than to skip anyway so best of luck and ask that doctor.

Answer 3

have self assurance it or no longer hernias are very undemanding in infants. My 10 week old son has a herniated bellybutton. yet he does not choose surgical technique for it. His will close by itself in time. Inguinal hernias regrettably do might desire to be addressed surgically in spite of the shown fact that. yet from what I quite have study it extremely is an particularly undemanding technique and that i does not problem too plenty approximately it. stable good fortune and congrats on your new toddler! :-)

Answer 4

I'm glad that everything is okay, but isn't this something you should ask a doctor about? He is 6 weeks old, why would you ask a bunch of strangers?

Answer 5

its best to get advice from a different doc just in case.
