Join Dr. Matthew Walsh and Dr. Diya Alaedeen as they discuss laparoscopic vs open inguinal hernia repairs. They focus on when a patient should be concerned, medical consequences, and if they should see a surgeon. They also talk about mesh, the safety of it and how often mesh is used. Dr. Alaedeen also provides his thoughts on one sided hernia and if there is an advantage to fix the other side prophylactically.
