What is Hernia?

A hernia is a medical issue that happens when an organ or fatty tissue pushes through a weakened spot in the muscles or connective tissues. These hernias usually show up as uncomfortable bulges that get larger over time and can result in pain.

Identify the Signs of Hernia

Swelling or lump in the groin or abdomen

Abdominal or groin pain when lifting weights

Slow growth of the bulge

Sensation of weightiness in the abdomen

Indications of bowel blockage

Understand the Causes of Hernia

Weak muscles, along with ongoing pressure, are the main trigger for the formation of hernias in specific parts of the body. The reasons for these weak muscles can differ, and they might lead to hernias slowly over a period or abruptly.

Here are a few usual factors that frequently lead to muscle weakness, creating a path for hernias to emerge:

Lifting heavy weights

Long-term cough due to issues like Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disorder (COPD)

Being constipated for a while stresses the abdominal muscles

The abdominal wall can weaken due to multiple pregnancies

Surgical cuts become weak spots in the abdomen

Weaknesses from birth due to congenital problems

Different Types of Hernia

An epigastric hernia develops between the umbilicus and the base of the sternal bone. These hernias can result in extreme discomfort and other potentially dangerous issues that might necessitate urgent surgery.

Epigastric Hernia

Femoral Hernia

Hiatal Hernia

Inguinal Hernia

Incisional Hernia

Umbilical Hernia

Our Experts Explain

How can hernia be prevented?

Keep your body weight in check with a well-balanced diet and consistent physical activity.

Avoid constipation by eating enough fruits, vegetables, and whole grains..

When lifting heavy items, remember to use the right posture and avoid excessive weight.

If you have continuous coughs or sneezes, it's wise to see a doctor.

Quit smoking to lower the chances of chronic coughing and hernia

Being overweight raises abdominal pressure, increasing the likelihood of hernias in people with obesity.

Recommendations after Hernia Surgery

Doctors usually recommend undergoing surgical hernia repair to avoid possible life-threatening outcomes. Mykare Health connects you with top doctors and surgeons in Chennai, assisting you in discovering the right treatment at an affordable cost.

Open Surgery for Hernia

The commonly accepted approach for treating hernias worldwide is open surgery. This method includes making a cut in the groin region to reach the hernia sac and push the protruding intestine back into the abdomen. Afterward, the abdominal wall is stitched up. In instances of larger openings, a synthetic mesh might be employed to strengthen the seal.

Laparoscopic Hernia Surgery

Experts in Chennai view laparoscopic hernia surgery as the most efficient approach for treating hernias. This less intrusive method involves small cuts and a laparoscope equipped with a camera to mend the hernia. Surgeons can opt for a single incision in the chest wall (thoracotomy) or several small incisions in the abdomen (laparoscopy). Using specialised surgical instruments and video visuals, the surgeon carries out the procedure.

Robotic Hernia Surgery

The advanced method of robotic hernia surgery involves a laparoscope that assists the surgeon in both inspecting and fixing the abdominal hernia. This procedure resembles laparoscopic surgery, but differs in that the surgeon operates the instruments from a console within the operating room. The incorporation of three-dimensional visuals improves the accuracy of mending the abdominal wall.

The most favourable choice for addressing hernias is laparoscopic hernia surgery, renowned for its advanced and minimally disruptive characteristics. Opting for this method in Chennai presents numerous benefits, such as: Reduced risk of bleeding and infection: Laparoscopic surgery only requires tiny incisions, reducing the risk of problems like bleeding or infection, while also causing very little scarring or wounds. Lower likelihood of complications: Laparoscopic hernia surgery significantly reduces the risk of complications by employing precise surgical techniques and using camera and light assistance to visualise the interior of the abdomen. High success rate and minimal complications: Laparoscopic hernia surgery achieves an impressive 95 to 98 percent success rate, virtually free of complications. Nonetheless, it's vital to choose a highly skilled and well-regarded surgeon for the operation. Swift and comfortable recovery: In contrast to traditional open hernia surgery, laparoscopic surgery offers a quicker and more comfortable recovery, often involving minimal pain. Most patients can return to their regular routines within 3 to 4 days, although complete recovery might extend to 2 weeks. Preoperative preparations and post-care: Laparoscopic hernia surgery entails thorough pre-surgery and post-surgery care, including essential guidance from medical professionals and surgeons throughout the entire recovery process. Depending on the patient's age and overall health, pre-surgery preparations may encompass medical assessments like blood work, chest radiographs, and electrocardiograms. Medication considerations: Patients need to avoid specific medications, like sleeping pills, for around a week prior to the surgery due to their potential impact on the body. Yet, certain medications might be recommended to aid the process. To reduce the chances of complications, it's advisable to refrain from taking aspirin, blood thinners, and anti-inflammatory drugs before the procedure.

Following a laparoscopic hernia repair procedure, the typical hospital recuperation time ranges from one to two days. It is common to experience mild to severe pain immediately after surgery. While most individuals can resume their normal activities within two weeks, it is important to avoid intense physical activities to prevent placing excessive pressure on the surgical site. The success and recovery rate of life-threatening disorders, including hernias, has significantly improved with the advancement of cutting-edge techniques like minimally invasive operations. These techniques, such as laparoscopic hernia surgery, have contributed to a substantial decrease in complications and enhanced patient outcomes.

After your procedure, the surgeon will give you guidance on how to keep a nutritious diet, take care of the incision site, and prevent physical strain. It's crucial to understand that even after hernia repair surgery, there's a chance of hernia returning. This may be linked to weak underlying tissues or a slower recovery. Two major factors increasing the risk of hernia recurrence are smoking and obesity. So, embracing a healthy lifestyle and steering clear of these risk factors can help decrease the chance of hernia coming back.

I was advised by my physician for a circumcision for hygienic reasons as well as certain urinary problems. I found out about Mykare Health from Instagram and at first I was a bit sceptical about approaching them as I have never before availed such consultancy services, especially for a medical purpose. Anyway, with a lot of reservations in mind, I decided to take the help of Mykare Health Team. From day one including scheduling the surgery, processing the insurance related paperworks, doctor's appointments etc to the day I got discharged, as well as the follow-up medical checkups later, I have to say the whole experience was totally overwhelming. Mykare representative Ms. Greashma did a commendable job in walking me through the entire journey and, at times, she even went above and beyond her call of duty to address our concerns in a very professional manner and thankfully the entire process was smooth and hassle-free, thanks to her unwavering commitment to the task at hand. Thank you Mykare Health Team for the amazing experience. Keep this going. Kudos. 👍
