Hernia Surgery

 

Hernias are more common in the groin (or inguinal) area. A hernia may cause symptoms that include, pain or discomfort and a lump or swelling in the affected area on the surface of the abdomen.

The surgical repair could be done using a mesh using either an open or laparoscopic (keyhole) approach. Keyhole surgery may provide faster recovery time, less pain, minimal scarring and quicker return to work

Open surgery is still considered a good way to repair a hernia with a good outcome
