A. If your 6-month-old baby has a hernia, particularly an inguinal hernia (common in infants), it's important to have it evaluated by a pediatrician. Hernias in babies typically require surgical intervention, especially if they don't resolve on their own or cause discomfort. Most hernias in infants are not painful, but if you notice any swelling, tenderness, or changes in your baby’s behavior (like crying or difficulty feeding), it's essential to consult with a pediatric surgeon. In some cases, the hernia may be monitored if it’s small and not causing problems, but surgery is often recommended to prevent complications like strangulation, where blood flow to the intestine is cut off. Always follow your doctor's advice regarding treatment and next steps.
