Content: What is a hernia? A hernia is when an internal part of the body pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or tissue wall. You may be able to push your hernia back in, or it may disappear when you lie down. There are several types of hernias depending on where they occur in the body. Most hernias get worse over time and need surgery to put the organs back into their correct place and prevent them from bulging out again. On this page, we will focus on hernia surgery and look at the different types of surgery to treat hernias, how they are performed, some possible risks and complications, and what to expect during your recovery. Are hernias dangerous? A hernia itself isn’t dangerous, but in some cases your hernia can become strangulated, which means the blood supply to an organ or tissue has been cut off. A hernia can also cause a bowel obstruction, where a section of your bowel becomes blocked. Both these situations are medical emergencies and potentially life-threatening. Seek immediate medical attention if you experience: Sudden, severe pain Vomiting Difficulty or inability to pass stool (poo) or gas Your hernia feels firm or tender, or you cannot push it back in What are the most common symptoms of a hernia? A hernia typically presents with a visible bulge or swelling under your skin, often in your abdomen or groin, which may become more noticeable when standing, bending, or coughing. Pain or discomfort is common, especially during activities like lifting, bending, or straining, and there may be a sensation of pressure, weakness, or heaviness in the affected area. Some people experience a burning, gurgling, or aching sensation near the bulge, with symptoms that worsen with physical activity or prolonged standing.
