Hernia Repair
Hernia Surgery
Hernia surgery is a medical procedure aimed at repairing a hernia, which occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or tissue wall. Hernias commonly appear in the abdominal area but can occur in other regions as well. Surgery is often recommended to repair the hernia and prevent potential complications.
Common Symptoms of Hernia:
- Visible Bulge
- Pain or Discomfort
- Aching or Burning
- Pressure or Heaviness
Hernias can lead to serious complications if left untreated. The herniated tissue can become trapped or “incarcerated,” leading to reduced blood flow and potentially causing tissue damage. This can progress to a condition called a strangulated hernia, which is a medical emergency requiring immediate attention.
