Hernia Treatment (click for worldwide facilities list): A hernia is an abnormal protrusion, or bulging out, of part of an organ through the tissues that normally contain it. In this condition, a weak spot or opening in a body wall, often due to laxity of the muscles, allows part of the organ to protrude.
A hernia may develop in almost any part of the body; however, the muscles of the abdominal wall are most commonly affected. Some of the many different types of hernias are: abdominal wall hernia, indirect inguinal hernia, direct inguinal hernia, femoral hernia, umbilical hernia, hiatal hernia, and incisional hernia. For small, non-strangulated and non-incarcerated hernias, various supports and trusses may offer temporary, symptomatic relief. However, the best treatment is herniorrhaphy (surgical closure or repair of the muscle wall through which the hernia protrudes).
Hernias cause pain and reduce general mobility. They never cure themselves, even though some can be cured (at least temporarily) by external manual manipulation. Depending on the nature of the protruding organ and the solidity of the structure through which it is protruding, a hernia may cause complications that are medically dangerous.
Early on, the hernia may be reducible - the protruding structures can be pushed back gently into their normal places. If those structures, however, cannot be returned to their normal locations through manipulation, the hernia is said to be irreducible, or incarcerated.
The best treatment is herniorrhaphy (surgical closure or repair of the muscle wall through which the hernia protrudes).
When the weakened area is very large, some strong synthetic material may be sewn over the defect to reinforce the weak area.
Postoperative care involves protecting the patient from respiratory infections that might cause coughing or sneezing, which would strain the suture line. Recovery is usually quick and complete.
