Hernia is treated in many ways. The choice of method depends entirely on where exactly this education is located with you. After all, today there are different types of this disease that require immediate medical attention.
Abdominal hernia
With such a pathology, a small tubercle forms on the abdomen, which with untimely treatment can deliver quite strong pain.
Treatment of hernias of this type should begin with a full examination of the body. Moreover, the earlier this disease is detected, the easier and more painless the therapy will be. In this case, a hernia should only be treated with surgery. During this operation, the specialist makes a small incision, and then sutures the hernial ring, thereby leaving all the organs in place. In order to prevent the re-development of this formation, it is recommended to strengthen the abdominal muscles. But this should be done only by avoiding too much physical exertion.
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 cry a lot and at the same time greatly strain their tummies. In such cases, the hernia may pass on its own after the umbilical ring is fully formed. However, there are situations when a deviation that occurs during infancy manifests itself after many years.
As a rule, 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 tendons and muscles. If the umbilical hernia occurred in an adult, then you can get rid of it only with the help of surgical intervention. In this case, autoplasty is performed (restoration due to own tissues) or the 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 (usually using the endoscopic method).
Disc hernia treatment
With this pathology, the patient has severe pain, changes in the condition of the skin and a violation of the sensitivity of the limbs (hands can constantly freeze).
Treatment of vertebral hernias begins with conservative therapy. For this, the patient is prescribed bed rest with raising his legs above the level of the heart. 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 disk is removed. Of course, this leads to limited mobility of the body. However, over time, the pain completely disappears, and a person can live a normal life.
