How To Reduce Pain From Hernia?
My mother was recently diagnosed with what the doctor called an internal hernia. I took her to the emergency room because she was bleeding profusely in bed and on the toilet. Is this bleeding normal for a hernia? The doctor did not prescribe anything for it and said it would go away. My mother also complains constantly of pain. Is there any way to stop the pain of a hernia? Email: YYYY@YYYY

Hello,
Internal hernia has to be corrected surgically, delayed treatment may cause gangrene of bowel. The bleeding may be due to twisting of bowel segments.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
