What types of hernia does R.K. Hospital treat?
We treat all types of hernias including inguinal (groin), umbilical (belly button), incisional (post-surgery), and hiatal hernias. Both laparoscopic and open repair options are available.
Is hernia surgery painful?
Laparoscopic hernia repair involves very small incisions and typically causes less pain than open surgery. Most patients experience mild discomfort that is well-controlled with pain medication.
How long after hernia surgery can I return to work?
For desk jobs, most patients return within 1-2 weeks after laparoscopic surgery. For physically demanding work, 4-6 weeks rest is recommended. Dr. Kanungo will advise based on your specific case.
