What is Hernia?

Hernias occur when an organ or piece of tissue sticks out and protrudes through the weakened muscle walls that surround the abdominal cavity. It is usually the intestines that make the bulge. But depending on the location of the hernia, the sac that is produced may contain part of the stomach too. Hernias can appear in the groin region, belly button, and upper thigh region. Typically, they are not life-threatening, but they are also incurable without proper treatment. The appropriate method to repair a hernia is to opt for surgical methods. And among the surgical methods, laparoscopic hernia treatment is the most reasonable and safest procedure, as stated by USFDA. If you feel any kind of bulge in the abdominal region with the slightest amount of pain. You can consult with Pristyn Care hernia specialists in Alleppey for a thorough diagnosis.

Hernia Treatment

Nursing Diagnosis For Hernia

At Pristyn Care, the general surgeon diagnoses a hernia during a physical examination. The diagnosis of a hernia includes looking at the herniated area to check if a bulge is visible. For an accurate diagnosis, a patient may be asked to stand, strain or cough. The Hernia Surgeon also looks into the patient’s medical history. In addition, there are a few diagnostic tests the doctor may recommend to have a better look at the affected area:

  • MRI Scan
  • CT Scan
  • Abdominal ultrasound

Hernia Operation Procedure

As reported by experienced doctors, surgery is the best solution to treat all kinds of hernias. A hernia may be present with or without symptoms in your body. But if you want to make sure that it doesn’t cause further problems like intestinal blockage or strangulation, it is better to seek proper treatment. Hernias can be treated by open surgery or laparoscopic surgery.

  • Open surgery is a procedure where incisions are made around the affected region. The misplaced tissues are returned to their original location, and a mesh is placed to support the abdominal muscles to keep the organ in its place.
  • Laparoscopic hernia surgeryis carried out by making 3-4 small incisions, and the protruding tissues are placed back in the original position. Then the mesh is placed, if needed, to reinforce the abdominal wall.
  • Robotic Laparoscopic Surgery – Robotic laparoscopic hernia surgery is a minimally invasive surgical procedure performed using robotic technology to repair hernias. During this procedure, tiny incisions are made, and a robotic system controlled by the surgeon is used to repair the hernia. The robotic system provides enhanced precision and dexterity compared to traditional laparoscopic surgery. This approach allows for quicker recovery, less post-operative pain, and reduced risk of complications. Overall, robotic laparoscopic hernia surgery offers patients a safe and effective treatment option for hernia repair.

Benefits of laparoscopic hernia surgery

Laparoscopic surgery is considered the best method to treat hernia as it’s a modern and advanced way to treat the problem. If you are suffering from a hernia and seeking the best treatment in Alleppey, you should consider opting for this advanced procedure.

The following are the top benefits of choosing laparoscopic surgery for hernia treatment.

  • Small incisions — Laparoscopic surgery involves small incisions. Therefore, the risk of bleeding or infection diminishes. Also, this procedure doesn’t result in wounds or scars. Laparoscopic surgery is the best procedure if you want to get rid of a hernia without any fear of pain, bleeding, infection, or other complications.
  • No risk of complications — During laparoscopic surgery, the surgeon uses a medical instrument called a laparoscope that has a small camera and light on one end. With the help of the camera and light, the surgeon sees the inside of the abdomen and performs the surgery precisely, diminishing the risk of complications.
  • High success rate — The success rate of laparoscopic hernia surgery is as high as 95-98 percent and the risk of complications is as low as almost zero. However, one thing you should keep in mind is that you choose an experienced and reliable surgeon for laparoscopic hernia surgery.
