An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles in the groin area. It appears as a bulge and can be painful, especially when coughing, bending, or lifting heavy objects.
Inguinal hernias are more common in men because of the way the male reproductive system develops. The spermatic cord descends from the abdomen into the scrotum through the inguinal canal shortly after birth, leaving a natural weak spot.
Diagnosis is usually made through a physical examination. The doctor will check for a bulge in the groin area and may ask you to cough or strain. Imaging tests like ultrasound may be used to confirm the diagnosis.
Dr. Raman Garg specializes in laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair using TAPP and TEP techniques. Both approaches involve placing a surgical mesh to reinforce the weakened abdominal wall. Laparoscopic repair is preferred because it allows the surgeon to view both sides and is associated with less post-operative pain and faster recovery.
Most patients are discharged the same day. Light activities can be resumed within 2-3 days, and most people return to work within 1-2 weeks. Complete recovery typically occurs within 4-6 weeks.
With over 10,000 successful hernia repairs, Dr. Raman Garg has extensive experience in treating inguinal hernias of all complexities. His advanced laparoscopic skills ensure the best outcomes for every patient.
