What hernia must be operated on?

1 What are the treatments for hernia? Hernia treatment can be divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment. Conservative treatment mainly includes drug treatment and hernia band treatment.

Drug treatment: There is no specific medicine for hernia itself, and all kinds of "one needle" circulating among the people are not desirable. Symptomatic treatment is mainly used, which can relieve symptoms such as abdominal distension, abdominal pain, dysuria and constipation caused by hernia, thus relieving hernia, but it can't control radical treatment and disease progress.

Hernia band therapy: For patients who can't undergo surgery temporarily, preventing hernial sac from protruding through hernia band can effectively prevent the further development of hernia and relieve symptoms such as abdominal distension, abdominal pain and constipation that can't be cured by drug treatment.

Conservative treatment is suitable for: in the first case, umbilical hernia occurs in infants under one year old, because the baby's abdominal muscles can be gradually strengthened with the growth of the body, and the hernia may heal itself. Two, for the elderly or with other serious diseases, prohibit surgery, can use hernia belt, prevent hernia. In addition to the above two cases, most patients should consider surgical treatment.

There are three surgical treatments: traditional hernia repair, tension-free hernia repair and laparoscopic hernia repair.

There are several methods for hernia surgery. Hernia treatment is divided into conservative treatment and surgical treatment. Surgical treatment includes traditional hernia repair, tension-free hernia repair and laparoscopic hernia repair.

First, traditional hernia repair: including high ligation of hernia sac, strengthening or repairing abdominal wall, that is, pulling the adjacent tissues of abdominal wall defect together for suture. This method is the most widely used, safe and effective, but its disadvantages are high suture tension and feeling of involvement and pain in the surgical site after operation.

Tension-free hernia repair: under tension-free conditions, the abdominal wall defect is repaired with artificial polymer materials. At present, tension-free hernioplasty is the most commonly used, which has the advantages of light postoperative pain, rapid recovery and low recurrence rate, but some patients will have rejection.

The third type, laparoscopic hernia repair: it is to complete hernia repair or hernia patch repair through laparoscopy. Because it is repaired under laparoscopy, it has the advantages of less trauma, less postoperative pain, quick recovery and no local involvement. However, this kind of operation requires high requirements for doctors and machinery and equipment, requires general anesthesia, and the operation cost is high.
