A hernia may cause a visible bulge in the abdomen or groin with pain or discomfort while lifting, bending, or coughing. Patients often feel heaviness or weakness in the affected area. Severe cases can lead to persistent pain, nausea, or vomiting.
How We Diagnose Hernias
Doctors diagnose hernias through a physical examination and medical history review. Imaging tests such as ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI help confirm the type, size, and location of the hernia. Accurate diagnosis ensures precise planning for surgical repair and effective recovery. Specialists at Manipal Hospitals deliver the best hernia treatment in Delhi using modern diagnostic tools and expertise.
Treatment Options
Treatment depends on the hernia type and severity. Minor hernias may need monitoring, while larger ones usually require surgery. Options include open or laparoscopic hernia repair with mesh reinforcement. Each plan ensures safety, minimal scarring, and faster recovery.

FAQs
-
Can a hernia go away on its own?
No. Unlike a pulled muscle, a hernia is a physical hole or defect in the muscle wall. It will not heal with rest or exercise. While some small hernias can be monitored ("watchful waiting"), most eventually require surgery because they tend to get larger over time.
-
What are the most common types of hernias?
-
Inguinal (Groin): The most common type, occurring when the intestine pushes into the groin canal.
-
Hiatal: Occurs when the upper stomach pushes through the diaphragm into the chest cavity.
-
Umbilical: Common in babies and pregnant women, occurring near the belly button.
-
Incisional: Occurs at the site of a previous surgical scar.
-
-
What does a hernia feel like?
The most common sign is a visible lump or bulge that may disappear when you lie down and reappear when you cough, stand, or strain. You might feel a dull ache, a heavy sensation in the abdomen, or sharp pain when lifting heavy objects.
-
Is a hernia always a medical emergency?
Not usually, but it becomes one if it becomes strangulated. This happens when the blood supply to the trapped tissue is cut off. Symptoms of an emergency include sudden, severe pain, redness over the bulge, nausea, vomiting, and an inability to pass gas or have a bowel movement.
-
What is "surgical mesh," and is it necessary?
Surgical mesh is a medical device used to reinforce weak area and provide extra support. According to the FDA, using mesh significantly reduces the chance of the hernia coming back (recurrence) compared to just using stitches alone.
