Question

What are the symptoms of infant intussusception?

Answer

The symptoms include a course lasting over 2 days, poor overall condition, severe dehydration, listlessness, high fever, abdominal swelling, marked tenderness in the abdomen, and muscle tension. For small intestine intussusception, surgical treatment should be adopted. Traditional Chinese medicine treatments such as massage can also be used as an adjunctive therapy. However, using medication alone may not yield ideal results, and it is recommended to seek assistance from a professional Chinese medicine massage therapist.
