Hernia Surgery
What is a Hernia?
A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the muscle or surrounding tissue, creating a noticeable bulge and causing discomfort or pain. Hernias can develop in various parts of the body, but the most common areas affected are the abdomen and groin.
Hernias are a common health issue in India, especially among individuals who perform heavy physical labour or those with certain health conditions that weaken the abdominal muscles.

Types of Hernia
Diagnosis of Hernia
Ultrasound, CT scan, and MRI are essential diagnostic imaging techniques used to assess hernias and other abdominal conditions. Ultrasound, a non-invasive procedure, provides real-time images of soft tissues and organs, helping detect hernias and evaluate their severity. A CT scan offers more detailed cross-sectional images, allowing doctors to determine the exact size, location, and extent of the hernia with greater accuracy. In complex cases where other imaging methods may not provide sufficient clarity, an MRI is used to obtain a more precise view, especially for deep or hidden hernias. These imaging tests play a crucial role in ensuring an accurate diagnosis and guiding the most effective treatment plan.
Treatment Options for Hernia
Recovery and Aftercare
After hernia surgery, most patients can return home the same day or the day after. The recovery time depends on the type of surgery performed and the size of the hernia. For open surgery, recovery may take several weeks, while laparoscopic surgery generally allows for a quicker recovery, usually within 1 to 2 weeks.
During recovery, patients are encouraged to avoid heavy lifting or strenuous activity for a few weeks and follow the post-surgery care plan provided by their doctor. At TAH Global Healthcare, we offer personalised care plans, including follow-up consultations, dietary advice, and physiotherapy, to ensure a smooth recovery and minimise the risk of recurrence.
