When Does a Hernia Need Surgery? A hernia does not always require immediate surgery. The decision depends on factors such as the type and size of the hernia, symptoms, overall health, and whether the condition is affecting daily activities. If a hernia is causing ongoing pain, increasing swelling, discomfort while moving, or difficulty with normal activities, a surgical evaluation may be appropriate. A surgeon can examine the affected area and discuss whether monitoring or surgery is suitable. For patients who require surgery, laparoscopic hernia surgery may be an option in selected cases. The appropriate technique depends on the individual patient's condition and clinical assessment.
