Hernia: Types, Causes, Symptoms, and Repair Surgery

A hernia is a protrusion of a body organ through a weak area or a natural orifice through which it does not pass ordinarily. Usually, the term hernia means abdominal wall hernia. It occurs due to a weakness in the abdominal wall, but could also be congenital (by birth) or acquired. Swelling or a bulge is noticed when the patient strains or stands. Some hernias cause pain and some do not cause any pain. The first signs may be a bulge, along with discomfort or pain.

What is GERD (Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease)

Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) is a common condition that impacts millions globally, yet it is frequently misinterpreted. It happens when stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus, the tube that connects your mouth and stomach. This backflow, known as acid reflux, irritates the lining of the oesophagus and leads to a variety of symptoms and complications. While occasional acid reflux is common, GERD is diagnosed when these episodes occur frequently—typically more than twice a week.
