Ways Of Treating Hernia
Hernia is a muscle tissues problem. Hernia is classified in three categories: inguinal hernia, umbilical hernia and incisional hernia. Its treatment seams to be evolving in the last decades because of the introduction of the tension-free repair, the laparoscopic repair or because of the development of clinics specialized in treating hernia. The evolution continues so we might think that other ways of treatment will be developed. After the first symptoms the patients should see a doctor. In cases of hernia the symptoms are bulges under the skin, often problems caused by prolonged standing or sitting and terrible pain when lifting. Most of the cases are treated by surgery. More than 600.000 people a year chose this method in order to treat hernia. Even though a high percentage of the patients chose this method, surgery is not recommended in all the cases. For elder men with small hernias surgery is not the best alternative.
