Upcoming EventsA hernia is a tear or defect in the abdominal wall that allows part of an internal organ to bulge out, causing aching pain or pressure in the area. Hernias tend to grow larger and cause symptoms that worsen over time. Hernias do not heal on their own, and most require surgical repair.
