A hernia is a common condition that occurs when an internal organ pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall. The most common types include inguinal hernia, umbilical hernia, and incisional hernia. Patients often notice a bulge in the abdominal area accompanied by discomfort, especially when lifting heavy objects or standing for long periods.
Laparoscopic hernia repair has become the preferred method due to its reduced pain, smaller incisions, and quicker recovery time. Dr. Ahmad Abdo, Specialist in General & Laparoscopic Surgery, performs hernia repairs using high-quality surgical mesh to strengthen the abdominal wall and prevent recurrence.
Common symptoms of hernia include:
- Visible bulge in the abdomen or groin
- Pain or pressure when lifting
- Discomfort when coughing or bending
- A feeling of heaviness or weakness in the abdomen
Delaying treatment may lead to complications such as strangulation, which can become a medical emergency.
Conclusion:
Early treatment is essential to prevent complications. With laparoscopic techniques performed by specialists like Dr. Ahmad Abdo, patients can expect faster healing, minimal pain, and long-lasting results.
