A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue protrudes through a weak spot or tear in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Hernias can develop in various areas of the body, including the abdomen, groin, and upper thigh, and may be caused by factors such as heavy lifting, straining, obesity, or previous surgery.

Dr. Suresh Kumar Saini evaluates each patient's individual condition and recommends the most appropriate treatment approach based on their needs.
