Inguinal Hernia

Understanding Inguinal Hernia

An inguinal hernia is the most common type of abdominal wall hernia, accounting for nearly 75% of all cases. It occurs when part of the intestine or fatty tissue pushes through a weak area in the lower abdominal muscles.

Although symptoms may begin with mild discomfort, the condition does not heal on its own. Early diagnosis and timely treatment help prevent complications and ensure the best long-term outcomes.
