You are an ideal candidate for hernia surgical treatment if any of these things happen:Incarceration is a condition when tissue (such as the intestine) becomes trapped in the abdominal wall. If it is not treated it may lead to strangulation and then the blood supply to the tissue gets cut off If the hernia becomes strangulated. This can cause permanent damage and is a surgical emergency.

Open surgery: This is operated under local/regional anaesthesia. Usuallysurgeon makes a cut (incision) to open the skin. The surgeon will gently push back the hernia into the place and then tie it off or remove it, and then he’ll close the weak area of the muscle — where the hernia pushed through – with stitches and then repair the layer anatomically with/without mesh. Laparoscopic surgery: This is a more advanced method where the abdomen of the patient is usually inflated with a harmless gas (CO2). This helps the surgeon to have a better look at the organ. A small incision is made in the abdomen and a thin tube with a camera on the end (laparoscope) is inserted. With the help of the laparoscope, the surgeon can see the image and uses it as a guide to repairing the hernia with mesh. The biggest advantage of laparoscopic surgery is the recovery time. It is very fast compared to open surgery. A patient can get discharged on the same day and are back to their normal routine a week sooner than with open surgery.
