Patient's question:
After eating, I always feel my stomach is very bloated, with constant gas and frequent burping. At night, this issue keeps me from sleeping well, and it also causes stomach pain, which makes me quite concerned. After a thorough examination at the hospital, it was found to be a hernia. How should a hernia be treated?Doctor's answer:
Now, we do not yet fully understand the specific location where the patient's hernia may recur. It is commonly seen in inguinal hernias or umbilical hernias. For this condition, clinical diagnosis generally recommends the implementation of a hernia repair surgery. The cause is likely related to the patient's weakened constitution, as prolonged increased intra-abdominal pressure can lead to intestinal wall protrusion, resulting in this clinical manifestation. It is advisable to go to a regular hospital's general surgery department and consult with a doctor based on the examination results.
