Diagnosing a Hernia
While the symptoms of a hernia may include pain or a bulge, hernias are most often diagnosed during a physical exam.
Sometimes a CT scan is required.
Anyone diagnosed with a hernia should consider having hernia repair surgery.
Only during consultation with your physician can the best plan be defined.
