A hernia can be deadly when it involves the intestines protruding through the abdominal wall and they become constricted. This can occur after a surgery scar has opened and allowed the small intestine to protrude and its contents are impeded from flowing through.
Another term for diaphragmatic hernia is a hiatal hernia.
Yes, it is possible to get a hernia more than once. Having a previous hernia does not prevent you from developing another one in a different location or even in the same area if the underlying issues that contributed to the first hernia are not addressed.
The different kinds of hernia are listed below: * Congenital hernia: occur in babies, present from birth. * Inguinal hernia: common in sportsmen, involves part of the bowel protrudibng into the groin * Hiatus hernia: involves the stomach, where it enters the chest cavity via the hiatus. * Incarcerated hernia: where the hernia has swollen up. * Reducible hernia: one that can be manipulated back into place easily, much like a dislocated joint can be repositioned with relative ease. * Irreducible hernia: can't be returned to its original position without surgical intervention. * Strangulated hernia: potentially fatal, as it means the bood supply has been cut off by the hernia. There are even more types, each with their own subtle variations. These can be viewed from the link. [source: adapted from First Aid, by Geddes and Grosset]
Reducible The hernia is said to be 'reducible' if it can be returned to the abdominal cavity and 'incarcerated' when it cannot be returned to the abdominal cavity.

Alcohol consumption can also increase the risk of complications during surgery to repair the hernia. It's important to consult with your healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.

Hernia surgery is important, especially to prevent serious complications. A hernia happens when internal tissues bulge through a weak spot in the muscle wall, often in the groin area. Without repair, there’s a risk of strangulation, where trapped tissue loses blood supply — a potentially life-threatening emergency requiring immediate surgery. Elective hernia repair closes the defect and relieves pain, discomfort, or obstruction, improving quality of life and lowering risk of complications. Causes and surgical approaches vary by hernia type. JNU Healthcare offers hernia repair (herniorrhaphy) to fix these weaknesses and support recovery.
Hernia is almost always a chronic disease. At times hernia can have acute onset.
