Have you ever noticed a bump on your belly?
That could be an epigastric hernia, a kind of fatty tissue in the abdomen that pushes through an area of the abdominal wall that’s either weakened or hasn’t formed properly.
It can also cause pain when someone coughs or laughs.
What is an Epigastrictive Hernia?
An epigASTRIA is a type of hernia and causes pain when fatty tissue sticks outwards from the abdomen during exertion.
It usually doesn’t cause any pain and can come on gradually, but if it does, it can be treated with surgical intervention.
How is it treated?
There are usually three treatment options for people with an epIGastric HERnia, depending on its severity and location.
The doctor will keep an eye on how the hernia progresses over time using imaging tests such as ultrasounds and CT scans.
If the patient isn’t experiencing pain, there’s nothing to do but wait and see
