Causes of a swollen belly in dogs:

1. Virus infection.

2. It may be caused by tumors, such as intra-abdominal tumors, including transitional epithelial tumors of the bladder, mesenteric lymphoma, etc. Due to the spread of tumors, abdominal lymph node lesions and enlargement may result. Examination of enlarged lymph nodes is recommended along with a detailed physical examination.

3. Abdominal hernia is caused by the outflow of abdominal contents due to muscle defects.

Typical symptoms of an inguinal hernia:

1. Reversible mass. The lump is more obvious when standing, disappears or returns to normal after lying down, and can recur. There is a swelling shock when you press the lump with your hand and cough.

2. Incarcerated and strangulated hernias usually occur in oblique hernias. Strong labor or a sudden increase in intra-abdominal pressure during defecation are the main reasons. The lump cannot be recovered when lying on the back or pushed by hand, and the lump is hard and has obvious tenderness.
