A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue protrudes through a weakened area in the muscle or surrounding tissue that usually contains it.
Most hernias are abdominal, meaning they occur in the abdomen or groin area.
Surgical repair is typically needed to correct a hernia, but some smaller hernias may be monitored, and lifestyle adjustments can help manage symptoms.
Surgery is the only way to permanently repair a hernia.
- Open Hernia Repair: The surgeon makes an incision to access the hernia and repair the weakened area, often using mesh.
- Laparoscopic Hernia Repair: Minimally invasive surgery using small incisions and a camera to guide the repair.
