A bulge in the groin, a burning sensation, discomfort when coughing or lifting objects...


These symptoms can not only disrupt your daily routine but also cause long-term concern.


At Costamed Medical Group, we want to help you regain your freedom of movement and the peace of mind you deserve.


Inguinal hernia repair surgery is an effective option to relieve your symptoms, prevent complications, and help you enjoy your everyday life without pain.

 

 

 

What Is an Inguinal Hernia and How Is It Repaired?

 

An inguinal hernia occurs when part of an internal organ—usually the intestine—pushes through a weakened area in the abdominal wall, forming a visible bulge in the groin.


Hernia repair surgery (hernioplasty) involves reinforcing the weakened area and returning everything to its proper place. 

 

There are two main surgical techniques:

Open Surgery

 

  • Direct incision: A cut is made in the groin to access the hernia.
  • Mesh reinforcement: The weakened abdominal wall is repaired and often reinforced with a synthetic mesh to prevent future protrusions.
  • Ideal for large or complex hernias: This traditional method is well-suited for cases requiring broader access and visual control.

 

Laparoscopic Surgery

  • Minimal incisions: Several small incisions are made to insert a camera and surgical instruments.
  • Less pain, faster recovery: This technique usually results in less postoperative pain and smaller scars.
  • Advanced technology: Camera-guided internal visualization allows for highly precise repair.

 

 

Why Undergo Hernia Repair Surgery?

 

  • Relieve pain and heaviness: Say goodbye to the constant discomfort when walking, coughing, or exercising.
  • Prevent complications: Stop the hernia from growing or causing tissue strangulation—key to your long-term safety.
  • Improve your quality of life: Return to your daily activities, play sports, lift your kids or grandkids, and enjoy life without limitations.
