When an organ tends to come out through an opening in the muscle or tissue that is holding it properly, it is known as Hernia. These are most common in the abdomen region but may also appear in several other places like upper thigh, groin area and belly button.

There are several types of Hernias –Inguinal, Hiatal, Umbilical, and Incisional. The most common symptom is presence of a bulge or lump in relevant area. It causes moderate to extreme pain, mostly in the abdominal area. It also causes weakness, pressure and heaviness in those areas.

The incisional and inguinal hernias are diagnosed through physical examination mostly. But if it is a hiatal hernia, then the doctor may suggest going for barium x-ray or endoscopy to visualize the internal region of the stomach.

Sometimes a small change in dietary habits, lifestyle and healthy body weight can cure hiatal hernia. But for severe cases, a surgery may be needed to eliminate this issue. An open or laparoscopic surgery can be performed to treat and repair hernias.
