Hiatal Hernia does not have specific symptoms. It is generally diagnosed when someone undergoes tests to determine the causes of severe heartburn, trouble while swallowing, or upper abdominal pain. The usual diagnostic procedures are an X-ray of the upper digestive system, upper Endoscopy, and Esophageal manometry.

2. When to consult a doctor for Hiatal Hernia?

If you have symptoms like heartburn that worsen when you lean over or lie down, chest pain, trouble swallowing, or belching, you may have to seek a medical opinion from the best Gastrointestinal surgeon (hiatal hernia surgeon) in your city.

3. Which doctor/specialist treats Hiatal Hernia?

A doctor who specialises in digestive diseases (Gastroenterologist) can give you better suggestions. You need to consult a laparoscopic gastro surgeon for the surgery.

4. How bad is a medium-size Hiatal Hernia?

Generally, a medium-size hernia will not be painful and troublesome. Typically, the Hiatus Hernia starts troubling you if it is larger than 6 cm or 2.5 inches. A hernia smaller than 6 cm can be managed by self-care and medication. If the hernia is very small, you can also approach a chiropractor(healthcare professionals who provide treatment through manual adjustments and not by prescribing medicines or surgeries) near you for an effective and non-invasive remedy.

5. What are Hiatal Hernia complications?

If the Hiatal Hernia is left untreated, it can result in complications such as Severe GERD (gastroesophageal reflux disease) and emergency conditions such as strangulation of the hernia. It may also cause lung problems or pneumonia when the stomach contents move up in the oesophagus.

Doctors For Laparoscopic Hiatus Hernia Repair In Agra

Laparoscopic Hiatus Hernia Repair or Hiatal hernia repair is a surgical procedure to repair a Hiatal Hernia using a laparoscope, a tiny telescope-like instrument. A Hiatal Hernia is the protrusion of an organ through its cavity when the stomach bulges out through a hole in your diaphragm. There are different surgical methods to repair Hiatal Hernia. One of the most recommended and less invasive surgeries is laparoscopic repair.

In this procedure the surgeon will make 4 to 5 tiny incisions in the abdomen and will insert the surgical instruments through the incisions. With the help of laparoscope, surgeon gets the clear images of the internal organs to monitor. Then the stomach is moved back into the abdominal cavity. The oesophagus is then wrapped with the stomach by staples or stitches and the sphincter is tightened well. Finally the incision will get closed by the laparoscopic surgeon and the patient will be shifted to post operative ward.

In this surgery, recovery is quicker, and there is less risk of infection. Laparoscopic surgeons are hernia specialist doctors who conduct the surgery. With this surgery, you can avoid large open wounds and incisions. Recovery time usually takes up to two weeks. It is a very safe procedure when performed by experienced surgeons.
