An inguinal hernia occurs when a portion of tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles near the groin area. This condition is one of the most common types of hernia and can affect both men and women, though it is more frequent in men.
Our specialists diagnose inguinal hernia through a physical examination and imaging tests such as ultrasound or CT scan to determine the size and severity of the hernia.
After surgery, children may require a short hospital stay. Proper hygiene, follow-up visits, and avoiding infections are key to smooth recovery and successful outcomes.
