Most commonly the hernias occur at the abdominal wall.
The vast majority of abdominal hernias are effected at the groin region, other areas can be umbilical hernia or the area around the navel, hernias caused by previous surgical procedures or areas near the pelvis.
In some families it’s more common that in others, therefore these can be genetic based, but such conditions as smoking, obesity or pregnancy can increase the risk of hernia formation.
Why is it required to repair a hernia?
In most cases the formation of the hernia comes with shooting, stabbing, dull or tension sensations. Along with the pain an abdominal lump can appear at the impacted area. In some cases, the patient cannot feel any abdominal pain at all.
The size of the bulge can increase when intense activity is involved. The content of the hernia is usually replaceable through the hernia gate to the abdominal cavity. Without any treatment the danger of hernia exclusion can appear.
During an exclusion the hernia content cannot recover to the abdominal cavity which can cause the decrease of blood supply in the intestinal track. As the result of these events an emergency can happen which can only be treated with urgent surgery.
