Hi welcome to healthcareMagic Forum

these symptoms are not due to hernia...
the above symptoms suggestive of Allergic Drug reactions of Monocef,.. But monocef belongs to cephalosporin group which is rarely allergic.. since monocef is allergic you must be alert that drug must not be given for him at any time in life...
