Hernia Repair Surgery

A hernia occurs when tissue or part of an organ pushes through a weakened area of muscle or connective tissue. Hernias commonly develop in the abdomen or groin and may become more noticeable with lifting, coughing, or prolonged standing.

Although some hernias cause only mild discomfort, others can lead to pain, enlargement of the bulge, or complications over time. Early evaluation by a general surgeon can help determine the most appropriate treatment before symptoms worsen.
