What is Hernia Surgery?

A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the muscle or surrounding tissue wall. The most common types of hernias include inguinal, femoral, umbilical, incisional, and hiatal hernias. Hernia surgery involves repairing the weakened area to prevent complications and restore normal function.
