Hernia Surgery
What is Hernia?
A hernia is a condition where an organ or tissue bulges through a weakened area in the muscles or tissues that surround it. Hernias can occur in various parts of the body, but the most common types are inguinal (groin), femoral (upper thigh), umbilical (belly button), and incisional (resulting from a surgical incision).
Symptoms of Hernia
The symptoms of a hernia can vary depending on the type and location of the hernia. Common symptoms include:
-
Pain or discomfort, especially when bending over, coughing, or lifting heavy objects
-
A bulge or swelling that may be more noticeable when standing up or straining
-
Weakness or pressure in the affected area
-
Difficulty swallowing or feeling full after eating (in the case of hiatal hernias)
