Prophylaxis | Pain with a hernia

Prophylaxis

The avoidance of the pain that can occur with inguinal hernia is basically only possible by avoiding the inguinal hernia itself. Care should be taken not to carry out any measures that cause increased pressure in the abdominal cavity. In this way the development of an inguinal hernia can possibly be avoided.

No loads that are too heavy should be lifted. In addition, it can be useful to discuss with the doctor about suitable laxative measures in case of constipation in order to prevent strong pressing. Nevertheless, unfortunately, inguinal hernias cannot be safely prevented by these measures either, since the nature of the connective tissue of the individual person is also largely responsible for this. Nevertheless, the above mentioned measures should be considered as important support.
