What are the symptoms of labia hernia in women?

Women may experience various diseases in their genitals, including labia hernia. This disease mainly occurs in the female groin area, especially the labia majora area, which is most likely to occur. Over time, the female labia hernia will also change, such as increasing in size. Usually, patients with labia hernia will experience the following symptoms.

Symptoms of labia hernia in women:

1. It will fall out when standing or exercising, but will disappear immediately when lying down or pressing. This symptom is the most common symptom of hernia. Moreover, once female friends, whether adults or children, suffer from hernia, the symptoms are roughly the same.

2. Women can suffer from unilateral or bilateral hernia. Hernia is more common in little girls, and most often occurs in the femoral hernia. Its symptoms are a round or long lump that protrudes from the lower right or left side of the lower abdomen and falls to the perineum.

3. Women's inguinal oblique hernia has its own characteristics. Clinically, if the hernia sac of a woman's inguinal oblique hernia drops to the labia majora, it is called a labia hernia. If the hernia sac is particularly large, it is called a giant hernia. In the early stages of inguinal hernia in women, the only symptom is a bulge in the groin area.

4. As the body's position continues to change, the size of the tumor will also change with the body position. When you maintain a standing position, the size of the swelling will increase, and when you lie down, the swelling will shrink or even disappear. These are common symptoms of hernia in daily life.

Treatment for hernia in women

There are many treatments for hernia in women, including non-surgical conservative treatment and surgical treatment. There are two non-surgical treatments for female hernia: medication and hernia belt therapy.

1. Drug therapy

Oral medication can relieve the pain symptoms of hernia, but it cannot control hernia prolapse or prevent the risk of hernia incarceration.

2. Hernia belt therapy

It can quickly prevent the hernia from prolapse, thereby effectively preventing the hernia from developing. Hernia in girls under six months old can be treated with a hernia belt and has a certain chance of spontaneous healing. However, hernia in adults can only be cured by surgery. Due to the defects of traditional hernia surgery, such as great trauma and pain, and leaving unsightly scars after surgery, it is safer and more effective for female hernia patients to choose minimally invasive tension-free hernia repair. Minimally invasive tension-free hernia repair surgery is a surgical procedure that is more in line with the physiological and anatomical structure of the human body. It usually only requires local anesthesia and the incision is only 2-3cm. There is no pulling sensation or pain at the surgical site after the operation, and the healing is quick. Currently, this procedure is only performed in regular hernia specialist hospitals.
