my mother has a hernia issue which specialist should we see for this? are there any non-surgical options to treat hernia or is surgery the only solution?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
For a hernia, you should consult a general surgeon, as they specialize in diagnosing and treating hernias. Non-surgical options like watchful waiting or using a supportive truss may help in mild cases, but surgery is usually the definitive treatment to repair the hernia and prevent complications. Early evaluation by a surgeon is recommended.
