Hernias occur when part of the bowel or peritoneum pushes through a gap in the abdominal wall, often visible as a bulge. The most common types include inguinal, femoral, incisional, umbilical, and epigastric hernias, with symptoms ranging from no discomfort to severe pain and complications. Treatment typically involves surgery to repair the hernia, although some cases may not require immediate intervention.
