Is surgery the best way to cure a hernia?

Surgery is the recommended course of action for hernias. To control the hernia a binding device may be used. This binding would hold the hernia in while doing exercises and would prevent the hernia from getting larger.

Is it possible to feel your hernia one day when breathing in deeply and then it go away the next?

Yes, it is possible to feel your hernia one day and then not the next, this is called a reducible hernia, and is a good thing. Since a hernia is just a pouch of your intestine pushing through an area of your abdominal wall, many people can push their hernia back through the defect in the abdominal wall and into their abdominal cavity. It is when you can no longer "reduce" your hernia where problems arise. A hernia that cannot be pushed back into the abdominal cavity or is "unreducible" is called an incarcerated hernia and can pose more problems mainly because as intestinal contents flow through the intestine they can become "stuck" as they too pass through the area of intestine protruding through the abdominal wall. If you become unable to move your bowels or are vomiting for what seems like no reason, it may be a sign that your hernia is causing intestinal contents to back up in your system and you should see a doctor for an evaluation. Additionally, an incarcerated hernia can turn into a "strangulated" hernia because while the intestines are stuck in this defect in your abdominal wall, the blood flow to this portion of intestine becomes blocked. This causes the area of intestine to become necrotic or "die" and lead to serious problems, surgery would be your only option. Signs of this would be intense pain at your hernia site as well as vomiting. So I would suspect that on days where you cannot feel your hernia it is because that portion of intestine has worked its way back into your abdominal cavity, this is not to say that you are healed, and in fact the next time you cough or strain and the pressure inside your body increases the hernia will likely bulge out again (the only way to fix a hernia for good is surgery). A reducible hernia isn't a huge deal, but over time your chances for it to develop into either an incarcerated or strangulated hernia increase, so you have to weigh the risks and benefits on deciding if surgery would be a good idea for you or not.


Where can one find information on adult scoliosis surgery?

Adult scoliosis surgery (either anterior or posterior surgery) is not a simple task that can be easily researched online. It is a surgery that can cause paralysis in 1 out of 1,000 cases. Since this is a very delicate type of surgery the best information would be from a surgeon or doctor who can provide enough information to educate.

Can you get a belly button peircing if you have a hernia?

I would say no. A hernia is inside your stomach and you have a lump around your belly button. So my guess would be if you have a hernia, you can't get your belly button pierced.


Does a hernia have anything to do with your belly button?

There are various types of hernia, but one is the umbilical hernia, which occurs behind the belly button. This one was from a colon surgery at the belly button. Can I wait for surgery, what is the dangers and how can I tell if its getting worse? This isn't something you should self-diagnose or self-monitor. You need to see your doctor - preferably the doctor who referred you for, or performed, the initial surgery - for assessment; don't put this off, it will only play on your mind and worry you, when it might turn out to be no problem at all. I had a piercing client come in with what she though was a piercing issue with her navel piercing, it was in fact a hernia and was unrelated to her piercing, but it actually saved her life. Had she not come in to see me she would have gone on her trip to Mexico and it would have ruptured during the plane flight. But she came in, I noticed the issue and sent her to her doctor who sent her directly to the hospital for emergency surgery. Professional body piercers are observant and smart. Oh yes she recovered nicely then went to Mexico to recover by the beach. Jzuk
