Hernias are treated in many ways. The choice of method depends entirely on where exactly this formation is located in you. Indeed, today there are different types of this disease that require immediate medical intervention.
Abdominal hernia
With such a pathology, a small tubercle forms on the abdomen, which, if not treated in time, can cause quite severe pain.
Treatment of hernias of this type should begin with a complete examination of the body. Moreover, the earlier this disease is detected, the easier and painless the therapy will be. In this case, the hernia should be treated only with the help of surgery. During such an operation, the specialist makes a small incision, and then sutures the hernial ring, thereby leaving all the organs in their places. In order to prevent the re-development of this formation, it is recommended to strengthen the abdominal muscles. But this should only be done while avoiding too much physical activity.
Umbilical hernia: treatment methods
Such pathologies are included in the number of hernias of the abdominal cavity. Most often, this type of disease occurs in infants who scream a lot and at the same time strain their tummies a lot. In such cases, the hernia may go away on its own after the umbilical ring is fully formed. However, there are situations when a deviation that has arisen in infancy manifests itself after many years.
As a rule, the treatment of hernias in young children is carried out conservatively. To do this, the specialist applies a wide patch to the affected area, preventing further stretching of the tendons and muscles. If an umbilical hernia occurs in an adult, then you can get rid of it only with the help of surgical intervention. In this case, autoplasty is performed (recovery due to one's own tissues) or an endoscopic method is used (an implant is used).
Education in the groin
Inguinal hernia is a birth defect. With frequent constipation, physical exertion, or a significant increase in body weight, this ailment can quite disturb the patient. Such a deviation is treated only surgically (more often using the endoscopic method).
Treatment of disc herniation
With this pathology, the patient experiences severe pain, changes in the condition of the skin and a violation of the sensitivity of the limbs (hands may constantly freeze).
Treatment of herniated vertebrae begins with conservative therapy. For this, the patient is assigned to bed rest with legs raised aboveheart level. Various painkillers and physiotherapy aimed at stretching the spine can also be prescribed. If this treatment does not help, then surgery is performed. In the process, the affected disc is removed. Of course, this leads to limited mobility of the body. However, over time, the pain completely disappears, and the person can live a normal life.
