Hernia Surgery

Hernia is a condition where there is a weakness of the abdominal wall which allows abdominal contents to protrude through the defect on straining.

There are different sites from where hernias can manifest and they are known by different names. Some of the common hernias are:

Inguinal Hernia
Umbilical Hernia
Femoral Hernia
Incisional Hernia
Obturator Hernia
Spigelian Hernia
Ventral Hernia

All hernias require medical attention because hernias carry the risk of strangulation and emergency presentation that may need emergency surgery. Hence it is important to consult a General Surgeon and get the treatment done at an early stage.
