Laparoscopic hernia repair, tension-free

A hernia is a weakness in the abdominal wall that allows tissue or part of an organ to push through. The most common types are:

• Inguinal hernia (groin)
• Umbilical and paraumbilical hernia (around the belly button)
• Incisional hernia (at the site of a previous surgery)
• Hiatal hernia (in the diaphragm)

If your hernia causes pain, increases in size, or shows signs of obstruction (vomiting, severe pain, hard lump), surgery is the only definitive treatment.

Laparoscopic repair offers:

• Smaller cuts and less post operative pain
• Faster return to work, often within a week
• Lower risk of wound infection
• Better cosmetic result
• Ability to repair hernias on both sides through the same small incisions

Open repair is still preferred for very large hernias or in patients with multiple previous surgeries. Dr. Reddy chooses the approach that gives you the best long term result.
