Patient's question:
Recently, I have developed a hernia. After going to the hospital, the doctor prescribed some traditional Chinese medicine formulas for me. I have been taking care of it for a while, but it hasn't been very effective. The other day, my good friend recommended the Han Yu Zhen Gao Hernia Patch to me. How effective is the Han Yu Zhen Gao Hernia Patch?Doctor's answer:
Hernia first needs to clarify the etiology of its formation. It is mainly caused by congenital developmental abnormalities, weak or scarred areas in the abdominal wall. Under conditions of elevated intra-abdominal pressure, these weak areas lead to a series of clinical symptoms. Due to the risk of strangulation, timely surgical intervention should be considered. The effectiveness of treating hernia with traditional Chinese medicine or topical patches is limited. If treatment is necessary, it should be carried out under the guidance of a professional doctor.
