Understanding Hernia: When Surgery is Necessary
A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Common types include inguinal hernia (groin), ventral hernia (abdominal wall), hiatal hernia (diaphragm), and umbilical hernia (belly button). While some small hernias can be managed conservatively, most require surgical repair to prevent complications like strangulation, which can be life-threatening.
Types of Hernias We Treat
- Inguinal Hernia: Most common type occurring in the groin area
- Ventral/Incisional Hernia: Develops at previous surgical sites
- Umbilical Hernia: Occurs around the belly button
- Hiatal Hernia: Part of stomach pushes through diaphragm
- Epigastric Hernia: Above the belly button in upper abdomen
- Spigelian Hernia: Rare hernia along the side of abdominal muscles
