This commonly affects men when compared to women and has varying symptoms in both. Usually, hernias are small in size and do not cause any pain or discomfort, and it disappears on lying down, which is the most striking feature of a hernia. The lump increases in size while coughing, sneezing, standing, etc., due to the strain on the abdominal muscles. Usually, hernias do not require any treatment, unless they cause complications like severe pain, bowel obstruction, and strangulation (the hernia is deprived of the blood supply).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>This blog explores the various treatment modalities used to repair or treat a hernia depending on the size, severity, and type of hernia.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><b>What is Hernia?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A hernia occurs when any part or tissue within your body bulges through an opening or weakness in the muscle or tissue barrier that contains it. Most often, hernia involves your abdominal organs pushing through one of the walls of your abdominal cavity. Other areas include your lower chest through your diaphragm, your groin area, along the front midline of your abdomen, or through a previous abdominal surgery incision (cut). Hernias may occur due to a pre-existing muscle weakness at birth, trauma or injury, family history, being overweight (obese), multiple pregnancies, smoking, chronic (long-lasting) cough or constipation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hernias are usually harmless, and do not require any treatment, or non-surgical management would be sufficient to relieve symptoms like mild pain and discomfort. Sometimes hernias may grow in size and cause complications like severe pain, abdominal bloating, constipation, fever, nausea, vomiting, chest pain, indigestion, heartburn, and acid reflux, which may occur due to hernia obstruction or strangulation and require immediate medical attention through surgery.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How is Hernia Treated?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most often, hernias go unnoticed and do not require any treatment, until you experience symptoms like pain and discomfort. The treatment of hernia depends on the size and severity of the condition, and the location of the lump.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3><b>Non-surgical treatment<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"2\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This treatment approach is beneficial for small hernias without any obvious symptoms, or for mild
