Hernia is a bulge or swelling in abdominal wall or groin that develops due to weakness in the underlying muscles. Often painless to begin with, hernias have a tendency to increase in size and may result in complications like incarceration and strangulation. They can be treated by mesh repair by open or laparoscopic surgery.
Next Steps
Please visit a surgeon specialising in hernia repair for a complete evaluation before deciding which surgery is bear for your wife. After clinical examination, further investigations such as an ultrasound or a CT scan may be recommended.
