A hernia occurs when an internal part of the body pushes through a weakness in the muscle or surrounding tissue wall. This mainly happens with the abdominal organs and can lead to pain and swelling in the region. This can develop in any region of the body for both men and women.
In Ayurveda this is named as “Antra Vriddhi”. Improper food intake, heavy weight lifting and suppression of urges like feces and urine leads to increasing of vata dosha. That increased vata weakens the intestine and pulls it down that causing inguinal hernia.

Ayurveda treatment for hernia involves to reducing pain and swelling, strengthen the intestinal muscles and promote healthy digestion with internal herbal medicines, external medicinal treatments like oil and herbal paste applications and panchakarma therapies like snehana, virechana and niruha vasti.
