The Nature and Treatment of Hernia.

Hernia commonly called rupture. is pro-
trusion of some portion OF structure from
within the abdomen through the abdominal wall.
1t Is bullying, not a breaking open, OF the
skin. In most cases q loop OF intestine is the
structure which buiges; sometimes 1t is por-
tion of the omentum, covering Of the ntes-
tines.
The protrusion begins high in the groin. fol-
lows a path downward and toward the mid
line OF the body.
In infants and young children large share
OF hernias disappear spontaneously, If kept sup
ported by suitable pad or belt truss In
adults, hernia rarely, il ever. responds % any
other treatment than operation.
An adult with hernia should wear "A properly
fitted support, of course. The hitting and
lection OF the particular support required for
q given case is matter for the family doctor
supervise This highly important. because
many vict inns of conditions other than .:ernia
which conditions happen to resemble hernia. are
maltreated by druggists. manufacturers Of
trusces and other incompetent persons.
Some hernias irreducihle: that is. they
remain protrudcd in spite Of all efforts to
place the bullying structure within the abdo
structure slips back into the abdomen when the
patient lies down and the doctor replaces the
hernia. To apply truss other support to
irreducible hernia is dangerous expert
ment.
Resides the Of weakness and the actual
oss or physical efficiency suffered by a victim
OF hernia there is an ever present danger OF
the prolrudins structure becoming "str..ngu-
lated" That means that its circulaton is
choked off and if not Immediately operated
upoi., the inevitable result will be intestinal Oh
struction and death in about five days.
Every young person with hcrnia--and
everybody is young Till old age sets in-shouid
by all means have the radical operation for the
cure Of the hernia. 1t is safer than G hernia
IL is far more economical than lifetime OF
truss-wearing: IL may be done by any surgeon
anywhere with practical certainty Of success
under modern surgical methods.
No other treatment offers lighting
chance Of curing rupture.
