Such locations include post-operative scars (post-operative hernias) or areas where there is physiologically less tissue in the abdominal wall (navel – umbilical hernia; groin – inguinal and femoral hernias). Treatment of hernias is exclusively surgical — a hernia belt may serve as a temporary solution. Surgery most commonly involves reinforcing the abdominal wall by implanting a synthetic mesh, around which strengthening fibrous tissue forms. This is a tension-free technique that significantly reduces pain during the postoperative period.

What does the treatment process for abdominal hernia look like?
Before hernia surgery:
Before surgery, a consultation with both the surgeon and anaesthesiologist is required, during which the type and date of the procedure are determined, the necessary pre-operative tests are ordered, and the type of anaesthesia is selected.
Type of anesthesia:
General or spinal (lumbar).
Hospital stay:
1 day
Postoperative recommendations:
Skin sutures are removed after 10–14 days. For 3 months following surgery, all situations causing increased tension of the abdominal muscles should be avoided to allow the mesh to heal properly. These include primarily physical exertion, but also severe coughing and persistent constipation.
