A hernia develops when an organ pushes through a weakened muscle wall, usually at the abdomen or groin. Below are some signs and symptoms you should take note of:
One of the most common hernia signs is a noticeable bulge at or around the abdomen area.
Some pain or a burning sensation may be experienced at the site of the bulge.
In serious cases, a hernia which becomes strangulated may be infected and die, in which immediate medical attention is required.
