What Causes a Hernia?
Some people are born with a natural inclination to develop a hernia. A person may be born with a weakness in the abdominal cavity or develop it through the natural course of aging. Most people who develop hernias have had a propensity for them their entire life. Certain specific actions can force a person’s weak abdominal lining to be compromised by a painful hernia.
Hernia repair can be an invasive and costly operation. Many times a product called AlloDerm will be used as part of the repair process. Despite less-than-convincing success rates, AlloDerm may have been suggested to repair your hernia. If AlloDerm failure has led to your hernia reoccurrence, you deserve to be compensated for this painful complication. Please contact the AlloDerm failure attorneys at Williams Kherkher by calling 800-761-3187 for more information about your legal options regarding hernia reoccurrence.
Common Actions That Cause Hernias
People with a natural tendency to suffer hernias will greatly increase these innate risks by performing certain actions. Unfortunately, there are not reliable means of determining whether you are at-risk until it is too late. The following are conditions or actions that may be associated with a hernia:
- Chronic lung disease, which leads to coughing
- Excessive coughing
- Obesity
- Lifting heavy objects
- Liquids in the abdominal cavity
- Forceful bowel movement or urination
