Patient's question:
It appeared after a week and a half, and I wore a hernia belt. After wearing it for a year, it was fine, so I stopped wearing it. But this year, in the first lunar month, it came back again. The hernia belt didn't help, so I went to the hospital for surgery.Doctor's answer:
Hernia is a weak or torn area in the abdominal muscles of the human body, causing fat tissue or other human organs like intestines to protrude outward through this location, forming a noticeable bulge under the skin, accompanied by discomfort and pain. Symptoms become more pronounced during prolonged standing, urination, defecation, or lifting heavy objects. There is no medication to treat hernia; the only option is surgical repair to fix the defect.
