What are the symptoms of a hernia? What is the Lasegue exam? What is the Valsalva maneuver? Why are the exams preferably done standing up? What is the difference between a strangulated hernia and an incarcerated hernia? What is an irreducible umbilical hernia?
The symptoms of a hernia include the protrusion of an organ or tissue through a weakened area of the muscle or tissue that usually contains it, causing pain, discomfort, and swelling.
The Lasegue exam is performed by inserting a finger into the superficial inguinal ring to determine whether the hernia is direct or indirect.
The Valsalva maneuver is the active increase of intra-abdominal pressure.
The exams are preferably done standing up because gravity increases pressure on the inguinal region.
A strangulated hernia has signs of inflammation, while an incarcerated hernia only presents irreducibility.
An irreducible umbilical hernia is an incarcerated hernia.

Os sintomas de uma hérnia incluem a protrusão de um órgão ou tecido através de uma área enfraquecida do músculo ou tecido que normalmente o contém, causando dor, desconforto e inchaço. O exame de Lasegue é realizado inserindo um dedo no anel inguinal superficial para determinar se a hérnia é direta ou indireta. A manobra de Valsalva é o aumento ativo da pressão intra-abdominal. Os exames são preferencialmente realizados em posição em pé porque a gravidade aumenta a pressão na região inguinal. Uma hérnia estrangulada apresenta sinais de inflamação, enquanto uma hérnia encarcerada apenas apresenta irreducibilidade. Uma hérnia umbilical irreversível é uma hérnia encarcerada.
