Treatment

A hernia does not heal on its own. The usual treatment is an operation to repair the weak spot, either by keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery or by an open operation. Dr. Jamshed will advise which suits you.

What to expect

You are admitted for the operation. The surgeon will explain how long you are likely to stay and when you can lift heavy things and return to work.
