The Importance of Treating Hiatal Hernias
Hiatal hernias occur when the upper portion of the stomach moves through an opening in the diaphragm into the chest. This can result in a variety of uncomfortable symptoms, including acid reflux, chest pain, and difficulty swallowing. If left untreated, hiatal hernias can lead to more severe complications, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) or a condition called gastric volvulus. By addressing hiatal hernias through surgery, we can reduce the risk of these complications and improve overall health and well-being.
What to Expect During and After Hiatal Hernia Repair Surgery
Typically performed under general anesthesia, so you will be asleep and pain-free during the procedure.
The surgeon will make small incisions in the abdomen to access the herniated area and return it to its proper position, reinforcing the opening in the diaphragm with stitches or mesh.
After the surgery, most individuals can return home on the same day or the next day with specific post-operative instructions from their healthcare provider.
Follow all post-operative care instructions provided by your healthcare provider.
Keep the incision site clean and dry, and follow any dressing change instructions.
Take pain medications as prescribed to manage any discomfort or pain.
Avoid strenuous activity and heavy lifting until cleared by your healthcare provider.
