Inguinal Hernia

I have recently been diagnosed as having an Inguinal hernia, but these are very common and are only a small tear in the abdominal wall muscle, which allows the intestine(s) too sometimes protrude out through the tear and then retreat back in, when excessive flexure occurs in that region.
Condition cannot be improved, what is needed is a simple operation, to repair the hole, and now because of medical procedures and techniques recovery times are vastly improved, as surgeons now use a method called the Tension Free Method too repair damage, using flexible thin mesh like material, which also provides a good framework for muscle stability and tissue growth.

But not too sure if all hernias are treat the same surgically, but if it can be repaired using the knife so too speak then find out, nothing ventured nothing gained...

Good luck
