The child's lump feels very soft. When pressing the lump, it is often accompanied by a murmur, which is mostly caused by the prolapse of the small intestine. The large intestine, appendix, greater omentum, etc. may also prolapse, leading to umbilical hernia. In addition to seeing or touching the lump, some children will also have constipation, loss of appetite, vomiting and other phenomena, and some may become easy to cry, restless and so on.
