Good Morning Doc, I am 46 year old male and have signs of hernia near the groin area. Observed this 3 weeks back and consulted docs today. They have confirmed as hernia. I would like to know: 1. Is laproscopy or open surgery better? 2. which is safe -- ? 3. Will it re occur or can I lead a normal active life. Thank you
Hello, Surgery is the only treatment option for a hernia. Consult a general surgeon and get evaluated. You can opt for laparoscopic repair as it has got the best results and recurrence rate is low. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
