Hernia Repair in Riyadh

What is Hernia Repair?

A hernia is the protrusion of abdominal contents through a weakness in the abdominal wall. The weakness is repaired surgically, usually reinforced with a surgical mesh, and this can be done laparoscopically in many cases to reduce pain and speed recovery.

Who is it suitable for?

• A bulge in the abdomen or groin that increases on exertion
• Pain or dragging on standing or lifting
• An umbilical or incisional hernia after previous surgery
• A hernia that is gradually enlarging

How the session works, step by step

1. Clinical examination and imaging where needed
2. Determining the type and size of hernia
3. Choosing an open or laparoscopic approach
4. Repairing the hernia and reinforcing with mesh where indicated
5. Recovery monitoring and graded return to activity

How to prepare

• Stop smoking to improve healing
• Address weight, chronic cough and constipation before surgery
• Stop blood thinners as instructed

After the session — what to expect

• Local pain and swelling in the first days
• Avoid lifting for the period your surgeon specifies
• Early gentle walking
• Seek review urgently for severe pain, redness or fever

Cost and instalments

The cost of hernia repair varies with your case, the number of sessions and the plan your doctor sets, so an exact price cannot be given before a consultation. We explain the full cost after examination and before starting, and instalments are available through Tamara, Tabby and Emkan.
