About Hernia & Types of hernia surgery
A hernia occurs when the internal organs, tissues, muscles, or fat pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscle wall. Most hernias develop within the abdominal cavity, i.e., between the chest and hips. Hernias usually are not considered dangerous, but they tend to get bigger and lead to life-threatening complications.
It can occur in both males and females. Some common types of hernias are:
- Inguinal Hernia: It is the most common type of hernia that appears in the groin region when a part or section of the intestine or bladder pushes through the abdominal wall or into the inguinal canal. This type of hernia mostly occurs in males.
- Umbilical Hernia: In this type of hernia, the intestine protrudes through the weak abdominal muscles around the navel or belly button. It mostly develops in infants and often resolves within a year or so. Adult males and females can also develop this hernia.
- Hiatal Hernia: A hiatal hernia develops when the opening in the diaphragm, where the esophagus passes through, widens, and the stomach pushes through this opening, creating a bulge in the chest.
- Femoral Hernia: This type of hernia occurs when the internal organs or tissues push through the groin around the femoral artery present in the upper thigh region. A femoral hernia most develops in females.
- Incisional Hernia: Also known as ventral hernia, an incisional hernia develops in the area of a previous surgical incision where the intestine or other organs push through the weak scar tissue in the abdominal wall.
Other types of hernia include epigastric hernia, spigelian hernia, congenital diaphragmatic hernia, perineal hernia, etc. Hernias often cause discomfort, pain, and a visible bulge in the affected area. They can be left untreated initially but need to be monitored properly. However, if the condition progresses, surgical hernia repair is required to prevent complications and alleviate symptoms.

Management and Treatment Options for Hernia
The various management and treatment options for hernia include the following:
- Watchful Waiting: For small, symptomatic hernias, a “wait and see” approach is recommended, which involves regular monitoring of the bulge to ensure it doesn’t become larger or more problematic. It is preferred in elderly patients with multiple health issues.
- Lifestyle Modifications: Making certain lifestyle changes can also help to manage hernia symptoms, especially hiatal hernias. These may include avoiding large meals, staying upright after eating, etc.
- Medications: The Surgeon may prescribe over-the-counter or prescription medications to alleviate the symptoms associated with hernias, such as acid reflux or heartburn.
- Support Garments: For some individuals, the Surgeon may recommend wearing a hernia truss or support garments to push back the bulging organ in the abdominal cavity. However, it is not a long-term solution, and patients should not use them without consulting a Surgeon .
- Hernia Repair Surgery: Surgical repair for hernia is mostly recommended when the condition is symptomatic and there are significant risks of developing complications. The primary goal of surgery is to push back the protruding organ or tissue into its proper place. In most cases, the abdominal wall is strengthened using a hernia mesh, which also helps to prevent hernia recurrence.
The most suitable method of Laparoscopic Hernia Surgery is determined based on factors such as the type of hernia, its size, symptoms, the patient’s overall health, and the preferred choice of Surgery.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the price of a hernia belt for men?
The hernia belt price ranges from Rs. 500 to Rs. 3,000 or more. The hernia belts are available for different types of hernias. So, while purchasing, ensure that you are buying the right type of belt.
What are the long-term side effects of hernia surgery?
Generally, hernia surgery is safe, and there are no long-term side effects. However, in some cases, patients may develop hernia mesh complications, such as mesh adhesion, migration, shrinkage, etc. In some cases, the non-absorbable mesh may undergo degradation, and the absorbable mesh will get absorbed and lose strength over time. These side effects can make the patient vulnerable to hernia again.
Can hernia be cured without surgery?
Small and asymptomatic hernias can be managed without surgery, but it should be noted that a hernia cannot heal itself. Surgical repair is the only effective treatment for all types of hernias.
Is hernia surgery painful?
No. During hernia surgery, general anesthesia is administered by the Surgeon , which numbs the body. Thus, the patient doesn’t feel any kind of pain or discomfort during the procedure. However, after the surgery, there will be mild to moderate pain in the surgical site. To manage the pain, the Surgeon will prescribe pain medications.
