What is a Hernia?

A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Hernias are common and can affect people of all ages. They are often found in the abdomen, groin, or diaphragm. The most common types of hernias include:

• Inguinal Hernia: Occurs in the groin area.
• Umbilical Hernia: Around the belly button.
• Hiatal Hernia: In the upper stomach area.
• Incisional Hernia: At the site of a previous surgical incision.
• Femoral Hernia: Below the groin, more common in women.

Symptoms of Hernia

• A visible bulge in the affected area.
• Pain or discomfort, especially during coughing, lifting, or standing.
• A heavy or dragging sensation.
• In severe cases, nausea or vomiting.

If left untreated, hernias can lead to complications like bowel obstruction or strangulation, which require emergency care.

Complications of Untreated Hernias

Ignoring a hernia can lead to serious health risks, including:

• Incarceration: The hernia becomes trapped and cannot be pushed back, leading to severe pain.
• Strangulation: Blood supply to the herniated tissue is cut off, causing tissue death and potentially life-threatening infections.
• Bowel Obstruction: A blocked intestine can result in nausea, vomiting, and abdominal swelling.
