MedlinePlus: A hernia occurs when part of an internal organ bulges through a weak area of muscle. most hernias occur in the abdomen. there are several types of hernias, including
inguinal, the most common type, is in the groin
umbilical, around the belly button
incisional, through a scar
hiatal, a small opening in the diaphragm that allows the upper part of the stomach to move up into the chest.
congenital diaphragmatic, a birth defect that needs surgery
hernias are common. they can affect men, women and children. a combination of muscle weakness and straining, such as with heavy lifting, might contribute. some people are born with weak abdominal muscles and may be more likely to get a hernia.
the usual treatment for a hernia is surgery to repair the opening in the muscle wall. untreated hernias can cause pain and health problems.23
MalaCards: Hernia is related to congenital diaphragmatic hernia and hiatus hernia. An important gene associated with Hernia is DIH1 (diaphragmatic hernia 1), and among its related pathways are Actin-Based Motility by Rho Family GTPases and ERK5 Signaling. The compounds nitroglycerin and l-nmma have been mentioned in the context of this disorder. Affiliated tissues include heart, lung and thyroid, and related mouse phenotypes are endocrine/exocrine gland and liver/biliary system.
