Inguinal Hernia
An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue, such as part of your intestine, pushes through a weakened area in the groin; resulting in a bulge.
Hiatal Hernia
In people who have hiatal hernias, a portion of the stomach pushes up through the diaphragm. This results in uncomfortable symptoms, including acid reflux.
Umbilical Hernia
An umbilical hernia is an opening or a weakness in the abdominal muscles at the navel. Most umbilical hernias are painless.
Epigastric Hernia
Epigastric hernias are typically small and do not cause symptoms. However, larger ones should be surgically repaired by a skilled surgeon.
Incisional Hernia
Incisional hernias are common. If you have had abdominal surgery in the past, you may develop an incisional hernia afterward.
