    The primary treatment for an inguinal hernia is surgical repair, which can be done through open surgery or minimally invasive laparoscopic techniques. The choice of surgery depends on various factors including the hernia’s size, the patient’s overall health, and the surgeon’s expertise. Non-surgical management may be recommended for patients who are not experiencing significant symptoms or are not candidates for surgery.
