Hernias by Dr. David J. Leaper
The aim of this book is to describe what a hernia is and to demystify the medical terms used. It looks at the different health-care options available, including private care, describes the surgical procedures and what to expect afterwards, tells you how to minimize the risk of complications and what to do if they arise, and gives practical self-help strategies for the recovery period. Recent changes in the NHS are taken into account.
