My report states evidence of a well defined anterior wall defect of approximately 20 mm seen at supra umbilical region with herniation of bowel loops. Is this dangerous? As I am having fever for a few days now and stomach discomfort too. Should I go for surgery? Is it safe?

Yes, a hernia with bowel involvement and fever could be risky. Urgent surgical consultation is advised to prevent complications.

Dr. Ezhilarasan Suggests...

Take a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC) Test or Take a C-REACTIVE PROTEIN (CRP) - QUANTITATIVE Test
