Hernia repair
At The Precision Clinic, we offer expert diagnosis and treatment for all types of hernias, with fast access to consultant-led care and the latest surgical techniques. If you’re living with the discomfort or complications of a hernia, our experienced surgeons are here to help you get back to normal life—safely and without unnecessary delay.
What Is a Hernia?
A hernia occurs when an internal part of the body—such as tissue or part of the intestine—pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. This often results in a visible lump or bulge and can cause discomfort, especially when lifting, coughing, or standing for long periods.
Common types of hernia include:
- Inguinal hernia – occurs in the groin, more common in men
- Femoral hernia – occurs lower in the groin or upper thigh, more common in women
- Umbilical hernia – appears around the belly button
- Hiatal hernia – occurs when part of the stomach moves into the chest
- Incisional hernia – develops at the site of a previous surgical scar
- While some hernias cause little or no symptoms initially, they can worsen over time and may lead to complications if left untreated.
When Is Surgery Needed?
Not all hernias require immediate surgery, but many will eventually need repair—especially if they become painful, restrict activity, or show signs of complications such as obstruction or strangulation.
At The Precision Clinic, your consultant will carefully assess your hernia and advise whether surgery is the best course of action. We offer a full range of treatment options, including both open hernia repair and minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques, designed to reduce discomfort and support faster recovery.
