Hernia
A hernia occurs when an internal organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. It usually appears as a visible bulge and may cause pain or discomfort, especially while lifting, coughing, or bending.
Hernias do not heal on their own and typically require medical evaluation and surgical treatment.
