What is a Hernia?
A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Most hernias appear in the abdomen or groin and may cause a visible bulge, discomfort, or pain—especially during lifting, coughing, or physical activity.
Common types of hernia include:
-
Inguinal Hernia (groin)
-
Umbilical Hernia (navel)
-
Hiatal Hernia (upper stomach)
-
Incisional Hernia (at previous surgery site)
-
Femoral Hernia (thigh/groin area)
