A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Common types include inguinal, umbilical, and hiatal hernias.

Symptoms can include a visible bulge, pain or discomfort, especially when lifting or straining, and a feeling of weakness or heaviness in the affected area.

 Diagnosis typically involves a physical examination, and may include imaging studies such as ultrasound, CT scan, or MRI. Dr. Yuvaraj Gehlot will assess your condition to determine the appropriate diagnostic approach.

Treatment options include laparoscopic hernia repair, open hernia repair, robotic-assisted hernia repair, and tension-free mesh repair. Your specific treatment plan will be tailored to your type and severity of hernia.

While some discomfort is normal post-surgery, our procedures are designed to minimize pain. Pain management strategies are provided to ensure a comfortable recovery. Dr. Yuvaraj Gehlot and our team will work to make your experience as smooth as possible.

Recovery times can vary based on the type of surgery and individual factors. Many patients are able to return to normal activities within a few days to a week.

Potential risks include infection, bleeding, and recurrence of the hernia. Our team takes every precaution to minimize these risks and ensure a successful outcome.

While not all hernias can be prevented, maintaining a healthy weight, avoiding heavy lifting, and strengthening abdominal muscles can reduce the risk. Dr. Yuvaraj Gehlot can provide personalized advice based on your condition.

The risk of recurrence depends on the type of hernia and the treatment used. We provide comprehensive follow-up care to monitor your recovery and address any concerns that may arise.
