Need for Surgery
Surgery is generally recommended when medical management (medications, diet, or lifestyle changes) fails to relieve symptoms or when structural correction is required.
Common indicators you may need surgery include:
- Persistent abdominal pain, swelling, or bloating
- Recurrent indigestion, vomiting, or changes in bowel habits
- Swelling or bulge in the groin or abdomen (possible hernia)
- Lump or discharge from breast or skin lesions
- Acute conditions such as appendicitis or gallbladder stones, causing pain and fever
At RNH Hospital, every surgical case is individually evaluated with detailed clinical assessment, imaging, and diagnostic tests to ensure the safest and most effective treatment plan.
