Think You Have A Hernia?
Because they make it difficult to move, lift, push, and perform other typical everyday activities, hernias can affect your quality of life. Some hernias may become critically painful and require emergency attention. Fortunately, lifestyle changes and treatment may be able to minimize the symptoms. Mount Carmel has a team of experts with experience diagnosing and treating hernias, as well as advanced technology to surgically repair them. And if you end up needing surgery, Mount Carmel offers both traditional open and minimally invasive laparoscopic procedures.
See Your Primary Care Doctor
If you have a hernia, or think you might have one, it's important to see your doctor right away so they can assess your symptoms, make a proper diagnosis, and decide how best to treat it. Your primary care provider is a great place to start. If you don't have a primary care provider, Mount Carmel Medical Group has primary care providers across central Ohio to help you take the next step.
