A hernia occurs when an internal organ or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue wall. It most commonly develops in the abdomen, groin, or upper thigh area. While a hernia does not resolve on its own, timely surgical intervention can prevent serious complications such as incarceration or strangulation of the herniated tissue.
Common types include inguinal hernia (groin), umbilical hernia (navel), hiatal hernia (upper stomach), and incisional hernia (at a previous surgical site). Symptoms typically include a visible bulge, dull ache or pressure at the site, and discomfort that worsens with bending, coughing, or lifting.
If you notice a persistent bulge or experience sudden, severe pain at the hernia site, consult a specialist promptly. At Pristyn Care, our surgeons evaluate each patient thoroughly to recommend the most appropriate repair technique, whether laparoscopic or open, based on hernia type, size, and overall health.

At Pristyn Care, the general surgeon diagnoses a hernia during a physical examination. The diagnosis of a hernia includes looking at the herniated area to check if a bulge is visible. For an accurate diagnosis, a patient may be asked to stand, strain or cough. The Hernia Surgeon also looks into the patients medical history. In addition, there are a few diagnostic tests the doctor may recommend to have a better look at the affected area:

Surgery is the most effective and long-term solution for hernia repair. Depending on the type, size, and location of the hernia, a general surgeon may recommend one of the following approaches:
At Pristyn Care, experienced general surgeons evaluate each patient individually to recommend the most suitable surgical approach. Delaying treatment may lead to complications such as incarceration or strangulation, which require emergency intervention. Early surgical correction offers better outcomes and a smoother recovery for most patients.
