Some organs in the body (like bowels and other tissues) are held in place by a strong wall of muscle and tissue. A hernia is when the outer wall breaks open or tears, and organs fall through the opening. This pamphlet includes information about getting ready for your surgery, what to expect after, pain control, exercises, and follow-up care.
