LOCAL TREATMENT FOR HERNIA

 The treatment of hernia is actually a choice between waiting and undergoing surgery. It can be open or laparoscopic surgery (very small incisions).

After a hernia is diagnosed, medical attention is always advised.  Fortunately, there are several natural remedies as well as some lifestyle changes that can treat a hernia without any surgery.

Top natural remedies to treat hernia without surgery

If someone is diagnosed with a hernia, following natural remedies can help in getting relief from the symptoms of hernia:

1. Aloe vera juice

This is beneficial for easing out some of the symptoms of hernia due to its anti-inflammatory and soothing abilities. Even on a regular basis, people consume aloe vera juice for health benefits. Moreover, to lower the risk of developing a hernia, you can consume this juice before every meal.

2. Ice packs

When you suffer from a hernia, there can be inflammation and pain in the abdomen. Ice packs trigger contraction when applied to the affected area and reduce inflammation inside the body. In addition to this, these often gives relief from the pain and bloating.

3. Ginger root

Consume concentrated ginger juice or raw ginger to sort relief from the pain and discomfort in your stomach. It boosts your health system at the same time. It prevents the stomach from producing gastric juices which happen in the case of hiatal hernia.

4. Black pepper

Black pepper is more than just an added flavor. It stimulates healing in those parts of the body which have been compromised when the organ began to push through the cavity wall. It can also suppress acid reflux which can help to cure the swollen region of a hernia. 

5. Lose weight

Obese people are at a higher risk of suffering from a hernia. Obesity is one of the factors that can slow down the healing process. Losing weight helps to improve body posture and puts the body under less physical strain. Therefore when diagnosed with a hernia, start taking small meals and the symptoms may disappear naturally.

6. Diet alert

Spicy food, acidic food, and food difficult to digest should be avoided strictly. The main reason being that this food can further inflame the stomach lining, making it more difficult to heal.

7. Avoid Stress!

Another major factor that contributes to the formation of hernia is stress. Excessive stress can put more strain on your metabolism as a whole. Some stress-reducing activities include yoga, meditation, massage and use of essential oils and aromatherapy.

8. Say no to strenuous exercises

Do simple exercises

One of the main causes of hernia is strenuous exercise or overexertion. If you are engaged in heavy exercises, cut back and perform easy workouts. People who have suffered from hernia before should refrain from lifting heavyweights. Ensure you drink enough fluids and eat enough fiber.

9. Vegetable juice

One of the most effective natural remedies is a glass of vegetable juice – carrot, spinach, onions, broccoli, and kale. The nutrients and anti-inflammatory nature of vegetables help to soothe the burning and painful symptoms caused due to hernia.
