About General Surgery in Mumbai

General surgeons treat a wide range of conditions of the abdomen, skin and soft tissue, and some glands — including hernias, lipomas, cysts, abscesses and thyroid swellings. Many of these operations are short, planned procedures with a same-day or next-day discharge. Of the 6 general surgery treatments on Go Surgery, 4 usually let you go home the same day or the next.

General surgery overlaps with several other specialities: many general surgeons also perform laparoscopic, proctology and breast operations. The right surgeon depends on the specific condition, so a consultation usually starts with examination and, where needed, an ultrasound or blood tests.

Conditions

These are common reasons patients in Mumbai seek a general surgery consultation.

Umbilical Hernia

An umbilical hernia is a bulge at or near the belly button where tissue pushes through the abdominal wall.

Incisional Hernia

An incisional hernia develops through the scar of a previous abdominal operation.

Lipoma

A lipoma is a soft, slow-growing, non-cancerous lump of fatty tissue under the skin.

Sebaceous Cyst

A sebaceous (epidermoid) cyst is a small lump under the skin filled with keratin. It can become infected and inflamed.

Thyroid Nodule & Goitre

A thyroid nodule is a lump in the thyroid gland; a goitre is an enlarged thyroid. Most nodules are benign, but some need removal because of size, symptoms or suspicion of cancer.

Treatments

Open Hernia Repair

The hernia is repaired through a single cut over it, and the area is reinforced with mesh. It can be done under local or spinal anaesthesia.

Umbilical Hernia Repair

The bulge at the belly button is repaired with stitches or mesh, through a small cut or laparoscopically.

Incisional Hernia Repair

A hernia through an old surgical scar is repaired and reinforced with mesh, openly or laparoscopically.

Lipoma Removal

A lipoma is removed through a small cut, usually under local anaesthesia, and sent for examination.

Sebaceous Cyst Removal

The cyst and its lining are removed completely to prevent it coming back. Infected cysts are usually drained first and removed later.

Thyroidectomy

Part or all of the thyroid gland is removed through a small incision in a skin crease of the neck. After total thyroidectomy, lifelong thyroid hormone tablets are needed.

FAQs

Does every lump need to be removed?

No. Many lumps, such as small lipomas, are harmless and can be monitored. A lump that is growing, painful, hard, fixed or causing concern should be examined, and removal may be recommended.

Can a hernia go away on its own?

Hernias in adults do not heal on their own and tend to enlarge over time. Surgery is the only definitive treatment, though small painless hernias are sometimes watched.

Are these operations done under general anaesthesia?

It depends on the procedure — small lumps are often removed under local anaesthesia, while hernia and thyroid surgery are usually done under general or spinal anaesthesia.

How do I book a consultation?
