The Department of General Surgery provides surgical interventions that focus on the endocrine system, gastrointestinal tract, liver, colon, and other major parts of the human body. Some of the common procedures include appendix, gallbladder removals, colonoscopies, thyroidectomies, hernia and bariatric surgeries.
Hernia
A hernia occurs through a weak spot when the organ or fatty tissue is squeezed. The most common types are inguinal, incisional, femoral, hiatal , and umbilical. Most commonly you are going to notice a lump or bulge in the problematic area. If the patient has an inguinal hernia, then the pubic bone will have a lump where the groin & thigh meet. When you lie down, a hernia won’t be noticeable. The problem is more likely to be noticed when you are standing up, coughing, or bending down. It is normal to feel pain or discomfort in the problematic area. If we talk about the effective treatment option then surgical repair is suggested by the Dr. Mahesh Kumar Thakur at Krishna Hospital, Samastipur.

Breast Surgery
Removal of non-cancer breast lumps. Some non-cancer breast lumps may need to be removed. Sometimes breasts are removed to prevent breast cancer. Either part or all of the breast and possibly the nearby lymph nodes are removed to get rid of the cancer.
