Hernia Repairs

Safe, Lasting Relief from Bulges, Pain, and Discomfort

Do you feel a bulge in your groin, belly, or near a previous surgical scar? It could be a hernia—a common condition where internal tissue pushes through a weak spot in your abdominal muscles. If left untreated, a hernia can become painful and even dangerous. Fortunately, hernia repair surgery is a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution.

What is a Hernia?

A hernia occurs when an organ or fatty tissue squeezes through a weak area in the muscle wall. Common types include:

• Inguinal Hernia – in the groin area (most common in men)

• Umbilical Hernia – near the belly button

• Incisional Hernia – at the site of a previous surgery

• Femoral Hernia – below the groin (more common in women)

• Hiatal Hernia – when part of the stomach pushes into the chest through the diaphragm

Symptoms of a Hernia

• A noticeable bulge or swelling

• Discomfort or pain, especially while lifting, coughing, or standing

• Heaviness or pressure in the abdomen

• In some cases, nausea, vomiting, or difficulty passing stool (emergency signs)

Hernias don’t heal on their own. Surgery is the only permanent cure. At Fortune Hospital, Kanpur, Dr. Manish Verma offers advanced laparoscopic (keyhole) hernia repair techniques such as:

These modern methods involve small cuts, faster healing, less pain, and minimal scarring.
