How to judge if a cat has a hernia? A cat's hernia may cause a sudden increase in one part of the cat's abdomen and may cause pain or swelling. During the examination, the cat needs to be lifted up and a hand is placed on its belly. If it is bulging, it means there is a hernia.
Cat hernia mainly include umbilical hernia, inguinal hernia, diaphragmatic hernia, etc. The main symptoms of hernia are that the organs in the abdominal cavity protrude outwards from the skin, and a soft small bag can be felt. Reproducible lumps appear in the groin area, partly accompanied by pain.
Cat hernia requires timely medical treatment, among which umbilical hernia can be treated conservatively. If conservative treatment is ineffective, surgical treatment is required.
If the contents of cat hernia can be replenished, they can be treated conservatively without surgery. If the contents cannot be returned to the position and the cat has a painful reaction, it is necessary to perform surgical incision, find the hernia sac, and return the contents to the contents.
