What a hernia is A hernia occurs when internal tissues push through a weak area or opening in the muscles and connective tissues (abdominal wall) that normally contain them. Common types include: - Inguinal hernia: Lower abdomen/inner groin - Femoral hernia: Outer groin/upper thigh - Umbilical hernia: Near the navel (belly button) - Incisional hernia: At the site of a prior surgical incision - Ventral hernia: Along the midline of the abdomen Hernias can occur in both children and adults. How common hernias are - Hernias are very common, and hernia repair is one of the most frequently performed surgeries in the United States. - Risk factors include male sex, advancing age, obesity, pregnancy, weak core muscles, chronic cough, constipation-related straining, and jobs that involve heavy lifting or long periods of standing. Treatment approach - Very small or mild hernias may be monitored for a period with watchful waiting, based on symptoms and exam findings. - Surgical repair is the only definitive treatment for a hernia; hernias do not heal on their own and are not corrected by medicines, physical therapy, or noninvasive treatments. Surgical options with Dr. Serrano Dr. Serrano offers several approaches to hernia repair, selected after a thorough examination and review of medical history: - Open hernia repair - Minimally invasive laparoscopic repair, using small incisions, a camera, and specialized instruments - Ultra-minimally invasive (UMI) hernia repair, a technique pioneered by Dr. Serrano that combines robotics and laparoscopy for highly precise, tissue-sparing repair Minimally invasive and UMI techniques are designed to reduce disruption of healthy tissues, support faster recovery, and improve comfort, when appropriate for the patient's condition. Recurrence risk and specialist care - For most people, hernia surgery is a curative treatment that resolves the problem. - The risk of a hernia returning (recurrence) depends on factors such as hernia size and location, patient health and body weight, and surgical technique. - Outcomes are generally best at centers and with surgeons who regularly perform hernia repairs, such as Dr. Serrano. Patients with a suspected or diagnosed hernia can contact Precision Surgery and Advanced Vein Therapy to discuss symptoms, confirm the diagnosis, and review which surgical approach may be most appropriate for their situation.

What varicose veins are - Varicose veins are enlarged, twisted veins, most commonly found in the legs and feet. - They develop when the valves that help blood flow back toward the heart become weakened or damaged, causing blood to pool and the veins to bulge. Common symptoms Patients with varicose veins may experience: - Visible, bulging veins that may appear blue or dark purple - Leg swelling or a feeling of heaviness, especially after standing or sitting for long periods - Aching, burning, or throbbing discomfort in the affected area - Itching or skin changes around the veins; in more advanced cases, skin can become discolored or ulcerated Risk factors and causes Factors that can increase the likelihood of developing varicose veins include: - Family history of varicose veins - Increasing age - Female sex and hormonal changes (such as pregnancy or menopause) - Prolonged standing or sitting - Obesity or excess body weight Treatment options available at the practice Treatment is individualized after a thorough evaluation. Options offered at Precision Surgery and Advanced Vein Therapy include: - Sclerotherapy - A solution is injected into the vein, causing it to close and gradually fade. - Often used for small to medium-sized varicose veins. - Varithena - An FDA-approved non-surgical injectable foam treatment for varicose veins. - Designed to improve both symptoms and appearance. - Provides a minimally invasive alternative to traditional vein stripping surgery. - Radiofrequency ablation - A catheter delivers heat energy inside the vein to close it and reroute blood to healthier veins. - Commonly used for larger varicose veins. - Microphlebectomy - Small incisions are made to remove varicose veins. - Performed as an outpatient procedure with typically minimal downtime. - Compression therapy - Medical-grade compression stockings help improve circulation and manage symptoms. - Often used as a conservative treatment or alongside other procedures. Recovery and follow-up - Most modern varicose vein treatments are minimally invasive and generally well-tolerated. - Many patients are able to return to normal activities within a short period, depending on the procedure performed and individual factors. - Dr. Serrano provides detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up to monitor healing and outcomes. When to seek evaluation Patients should consider an evaluation if they have: - Painful, heavy, or swollen legs - Visible varicose veins that cause discomfort or cosmetic concern - Skin changes, itching, or ulceration near the ankles or lower legs To discuss symptoms and find out which varicose vein treatment options may be appropriate, patients can contact the office or request a consultation through the practice website.
