Hernia

What Is Hernia ?

A hernia occurs when an organ pushes through an opening in the muscle or tissue that holds it in place. For example, the intestines may break through a weakened area in the abdominal wall.

Many hernias occur in the abdomen between your chest and hips, but they can also appear in the upper thigh and groin areas.

What Is The Main Cause Of Hernia ?

Ultimately, all hernias are caused by a combination of pressure and an opening or weakness of muscle or fascia. The pressure pushes an organ or tissue through the opening or weak spot. Sometimes the muscle weakness is present at birth.

What Is Treatment ?

Hernia treatment often involves surgical repair to push the protruding tissue back into place and strengthen the weakened area with mesh. Laparoscopic or open surgery techniques are used. Early intervention is important to prevent complications. Recovery time varies, but most people can resume normal activities after a few weeks.
