Inguinal Hernia Repair
Home » Inguinal Hernia Repair
What is an Inguinal Hernia?
An inguinal hernia occurs when a portion of the intestine or abdominal tissue protrudes through a weak spot in the groin area, often through the inguinal canal. It is more common in premature babies and boys, but can occur in girls too.
Causes of Inguinal Hernia in Children
Congenital defect – failure of the processus vaginalis (a small canal) to close after birth
Prematurity – increases the risk due to incomplete development
Family history of hernias
Chronic coughing, straining, or abdominal pressure
Symptoms of Inguinal Hernia
Visible bulge in the groin or scrotum, especially when crying or coughing
Swelling that may come and go
Discomfort or pain in the groin
Irritability and vomiting (if hernia becomes trapped or strangulated)
Diagnosis in Ghaziabad
Physical examination by pediatric surgeon
Ultrasound of the groin to confirm diagnosis, especially in girls or if the swelling is not clear
Clinical history to differentiate from other groin conditions
