Living with a hernia or gallbladder problems can be uncomfortable, frustrating and can have a real impact on your everyday life. Many patients spend months dealing with pain and symptoms while waiting for treatment.

At Surgery Now, we help Irish patients access experienced surgical teams in Spain, providing support throughout their journey and helping them get the care they need without the long waiting times.

Hernia Surgery

A hernia happens when tissue pushes through a weakened area of muscle, often causing a lump, discomfort or pain. While some hernias may not seem too troublesome at first, symptoms can often worsen over time.

Many patients experience:

  • A noticeable lump or swelling
  • Pain when lifting, coughing or moving
  • A heavy or dragging sensation
  • Discomfort during everyday activities

Hernia repair is a common procedure that can help relieve symptoms and allow patients to get back to enjoying their normal routines.

Gallbladder Surgery

Gallbladder problems, often caused by gallstones, can lead to painful episodes and digestive issues. For some people, these symptoms can become a regular part of life.

Common symptoms include:

  • Pain in the upper abdomen
  • Pain after eating, especially fatty foods
  • Nausea or vomiting
  • Bloating and indigestion

Gallbladder removal surgery is a common and effective procedure for patients experiencing ongoing problems.
