Hernia Ultrasound Scan
A hernia occurs when an internal part of the body pushes through a weakness in the muscle or surrounding tissue wall. In many cases, hernias cause no symptoms or very few symptoms. You may notice a swelling or lump in your tummy (abdomen) or groin that can often be pushed back in or will disappear when you lie down. Coughing or straining may make the lump to re-appear.
Types of hernias:
Hernias can occur throughout the body, but most often develop in the areas of your body between your chest and hips.
