Hernia treatments for children and adults

 

Safe • Modern • Specialist Care

 

Quality of life—Health

At Hernia Clinic Kandy, we provide comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for paediatric and adult hernias, using evidence-based surgical techniques tailored to each patient’s age, anatomy, and lifestyle.

 

Our focus is on safety, long-term success, minimal discomfort, and optimal recovery.

A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak area of muscle or connective tissue. Hernias do not heal on their own and usually require surgical correction to prevent complications. Early assessment allows for simpler surgery and faster recovery.

Treatment

Aproach

  • Each patient undergoes a thorough clinical evaluation, followed by a personalized treatment plan.

    Depending on the hernia type and patient profile, surgery may involve:

    • Open hernia repair

    • Mesh-based reinforcement (when indicated)

    • Minimally invasive techniques (case-dependent)

    Our goal is durable repair with minimal recurrence risk.
