Surgery is often needed when a hernia—where tissue pushes through a weak spot in your abdominal wall—causes pain, grows larger, or risks complications like strangulation. It repairs the defect to relieve discomfort and prevent serious issues. Your doctor will advise it based on your symptoms and hernia type.
Physical exams or imaging (e.g., ultrasound) confirm the hernia’s size and location.
Local, spinal, or general anesthesia is used, depending on the procedure type.
Surgeons repair the hernia using open surgery or laparoscopy, often with mesh to reinforce the area.
The incision is closed with stitches or staples, followed by recovery monitoring.
The procedure takes 30 minutes to 1 hour, depending on complexity. Your surgeon will explain the method during consultation.
Hernia surgery is low-risk with expert care, but potential complications include:
Infection at the surgical site
Hernia recurrence
Bleeding or blood clots
Mesh-related discomfort
Serious complications occur in less than 1% of cases. SB Medical Travels partners with top hospitals to minimize risks and ensure excellent outcomes.
Preparation ensures a smooth surgery and recovery:
Fast for 6-8 hours if under general anesthesia
Discuss medications with your doctor; some may need adjustment
Wear loose, comfortable clothing for your hospital visit
Arrange for someone to drive you home after surgery
SB Medical Travels provides a detailed pre-surgery checklist and personalized guidance to prepare you fully.
Same-day discharge or 1 day, depending on the procedure.
Rest and avoid heavy lifting; light walking is encouraged.
Gradual return to normal activities; avoid strenuous exercise.
Full recovery for most, resuming all regular activities.
Our team will coordinate your recovery plan, including follow-ups and activity guidance.
Pain management is carefully handled during and after hernia surgery:
Anesthesia ensures you feel no pain during the procedure.
Mild soreness at the incision site; pain medication helps.
Discomfort fades within days; over-the-counter pain relief is often enough.
Rarely any lasting pain; most feel normal after healing.
Our partner hospitals focus on effective pain management, and we’ll ensure your recovery is comfortable.
