A hernia is a condition in which part of an internal organ or tissue begins to bulge out of a weak spot or muscle. For most patients, a hernia is likely to develop in the abdomen. Heavy lifting or straining are usually what causes hernias to form.
Because most hernias are relatively small, patients do not usually notice them. Likewise, surgery isn’t always necessary. When a hernia begins to grow and causes you discomfort, contact Dr. Cernero to perform your hernia surgery in Denison.
The da Vinici Surgical system is an advanced surgical tool that utilizes a laparoscopic technology for minimally invasive procedures. This tool allows Dr. Cernero to perform more delicate procedures with small incisions and a greater range of motion. Because the incisions are smaller, the recovery time for your hernia surgery in Denison is lessened significantly.

The recovery time for hernia surgery is around 2 to 6 weeks. During this time, you can resume regular activities but avoid straining yourself or doing any heavy lifting until advised by your provider that it is safe to do so.
