A hernia is a hole in the abdominal wall through which tissue or organs protrude. The most common form of hernia is an inguinal hernia, which causes swelling and pain and may feel like a bulge or bump under the skin. Hernia surgery is often recommended to prevent future complications, such as bowel obstruction and bowel strangulation. Hudson Valley Surgical Group surgeons design a custom solution based on each patient’s need. If mesh is the solution, they take a multi-level approach in selecting the mesh used, including the weave, porosity, material, and weight. They have also perfected the placement of the mesh providing a stronger bond that allows for additional abdominal surgeries in the future, eliminating undue complications from the mesh presence.
