When is surgery recommended instead of medication or other treatments?

Surgery is typically recommended when a condition cannot be effectively managed with medication or minimally invasive treatments, or when delaying treatment could lead to complications. Your surgeon will explain the available options and recommend the most appropriate approach.

What types of conditions are treated by the General Surgery department?

Our General Surgery department manages a wide range of conditions, including hernias, gallbladder disease, appendicitis, breast lumps, thyroid disorders, soft tissue swellings, abscesses, hemorrhoids (piles), fissures, fistulas, and certain gastrointestinal conditions.

What is the difference between open surgery and laparoscopic surgery?

Open surgery involves a larger incision to access the affected area, while laparoscopic (keyhole) surgery uses small incisions and specialized instruments. Whenever appropriate, laparoscopic surgery offers benefits such as less pain, smaller scars, reduced blood loss, and faster recovery.

How should I prepare for a planned surgical procedure?

Preparation may include pre-operative investigations, reviewing your medical history, adjusting certain medications, fasting before surgery, and following your surgeon's specific instructions. Proper preparation helps ensure a safer procedure and smoother recovery.

How long does recovery take after general surgery?

Recovery varies depending on the type of surgery, your overall health, and the surgical technique used. While some minimally invasive procedures allow patients to return to normal activities within a few days, more complex surgeries may require several weeks of recovery. Your surgeon will provide a personalized recovery plan and follow-up schedule.
