Patient's question:
What should be paid attention to when adults have incisional hernias? I once had surgery, and recently, a lump has reappeared near the incision site. What could be the reason for this? I had surgery before, and I recovered well afterward. But now, this recurring situation is it a recurrence?Doctor's answer:
For the situation you described, adults who experience a recurrent incisional hernia need to be cautious about lifting heavy objects, intense exercise, or even strenuous exertion that may lead to a series of symptoms. The primary treatment method is surgical intervention, and appropriate local use of a mesh may be considered. Specific treatment plans should be determined based on clinical diagnosis, and it is important to be aware of the possibility of complications post-surgery. Proper precautions should be taken to ensure a smooth return to work.
