Neck hernia is a disease that occurs with pain in the chest, shoulder, back and most often in the arm. In addition to pain, loss of strength and numbness may accompany. If you have a hernia that requires surgery, do not be afraid. Be afraid of being late! If you pass the surgery period, even if the pain goes away, loss of strength and numbness may be permanent. In other words, your arm may remain somewhat paralyzed. For this, you should have surgery as soon as possible with a doctor you trust. The operation is performed under general anesthesia, that is, while you are asleep. The surgery is performed with microsurgical methods.
A cage and/or prosthesis is placed at the site of hernia removal during the surgery. Think of them like dental fillings. A foreign substance is placed inside your tooth, but you do not realize it is there and it stays with you for life. It has almost no side effects. You get up in the evening after the surgery and you are discharged the next day. You can take your shower the next day. You don’t have to worry about dressing as it is stitched from the inside. You use the given drugs to the letter, after resting for a while, you can return to your old life in a healthy way.
