Where do you have pain?
Hiatal hernia
A hiatal hernia is an unusual protrusion of a part of the stomach through the diaphragm.
Umbilical hernia
The hernial orifice is often located near the navel, where the abdominal wall is generally thinner and more unstable.
Spieghel hernia
In Spieghel's hernia, the hernial orifice is located approximately halfway between the navel and groin.
Sports bar
The long-lasting pain in the groin area often occurs in athletes.
Rectus diastasis
The widening of the linea alba, a vertical suture of connective tissue, is called rectus diastasis.
Inguinal hernia
In inguinal hernias, the peritoneum and organs push through the inguinal canal, above the inguinal ligament.
Femoral hernia
In thigh hernias, the hernia sac occurs below the inguinal ligament.
Chronic groin pain
Long-lasting pain in the groin can have various causes.
The parastomal hernia
The hernia of this type is located near the stoma (artificial bowel outlet).
Incisional hernia
Scars, e.g. from operations, are weak points in the abdominal wall where hernias often occur.
