Hernia occurs when an organ or part of organ squeezes through a weak spot in the containing muscle. The most common types form in the abdomen or groin. They do not heal by medical treatment and typically require surgery to repair.

Common Typesof hernia
1.Inguinal: Occurs in the groin; the most common type and primarily affects males.

2.Umbilical: A bulge around the belly button.

3.Incisional: Occurs at the site of a past abdominal surgery.

4. Hiatus: At Gastro-esphageal junction in diaphragm.

5.Femoral: Appears in the upper thigh, just below the groin. More common in women.

6. Lumbar, Spegalian, obturator and lateral wall hernia are rare.

Symptoms:

Visible or palpable bulge that often becomes more prominent when you cough, stand up, or strain, and may disappear when you lie down.Pain, Aching, discomfort in the area, particularly during physical activity, bending over, or coughing. Severe discomfort/ pain/ redness is a sign of complications.

Emergency / Complications:

Hernia becomes trapped (incarcerated) or loses blood flow (strangulated), it is a medical emergency. Need to seek immediate help if someobe with hernia experience sudden, severe, and worsening pain.
A bulge that turns red, purple, or dark.Nausea and vomiting with Inability to pass gas or have a bowel movement.

Diagnosis:
Doctors typically diagnose hernias through a physical exam, though ultrasounds or CT scans may be used gor better delineation.

Treatment:
Surgical repair is the standard treatment may be Laparoscopicor open. Surgery involves pushing the protruding tissue back into place and reinforcing the weakened muscle wall with surgical mesh in adults. In childhood hernia repair no mesh is usually given.

Laparoscopic hernia repair is a minimally invasive surgery where a surgeon makes three or four tiny incisions, uses a camera (laparoscope) to view the area, and pushes protruding tissue back into place. A synthetic mesh is then secured over the weak spot in the abdominal wall to prevent recurrence.

Laparoscopies are highly effective for most abdominal wall hernias. They are especially recommended for:
1.Inguinal (groin) hernias
2.Ventral or incisional hernias
3.Bilateral hernias (hernias on both sides simultaneously)
4.Recurrent hernias
5. Hiatus hernia

Most patients go home the same day and return to early work.
Less Pain
Less scar
reduced chance of infection
Low hernia recurrence.

Gallstones are hardened deposits of digestive fluid that can be formed in the gallbladder.

Your gallbladder is a small, pear-shaped organ on the right side of abdomenand holds a digestive fluid called bile(bile us formed in liver) that's released into the small intestine.

Gallstones are hardened deposits/ crystals of bile that can form in your gallbladder.

Gallstones range in size from as small as a grain of sand to as large one and multiple stones.
It is many times asymptomatic but those who experience symptoms from their gallstones usually require gallbladder removal surgery.
Signs and symptoms may include:

1. Sudden pain in the upper right portion of your abdomen or upper abdomen and sometimes lower chest or back.
2. Nausea or vomiting

Complications of gallstones may include:

1.Inflammation- A gallstone that becomes lodged in the neck of the gallbladder can cause acute/ chronic inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis). Cholecystitis can cause severe pain and fever.

2.Blockage of the bile duct. Gallstones can block the tubes (ducts) through which bile flows from your gallbladder or liver to your small intestine. Severe pain, jaundice and bile duct infection can result.

3.Blockage of the pancreatic duct-The pancreatic duct is a tube that runs from the pancreas and connects to the common bile duct and gallstone can cause a blockage in the pancreatic duct / ampulla junction, which can lead to inflammation of the pancreas (pancreatitis). Pancreatitis causes intense, constant abdominal pain and usually requires hospitalization.

4.Gallbladder cancer -People with a history of gallstones have an increased risk of gallbladder cancer. But gallbladder cancer is very rare, so even though the risk of cancer is elevated, the likelihood of gallbladder cancer is still very small.

Treatment
Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is a common, minimally invasive surgical procedure to remove a diseased or stone-filled gallbladder using small, 1-inch incisions. It is safer and requires faster recovery than traditional open surgery, with most patients returning home the same/ next day.
