Virtual Hernia Clinic

UAMS HealthNow offers a virtual consultation for those who may be suffering with a hernia.

Is This an Emergency?

If you have a medical emergency call 911 or go to your nearest emergency department.

What is a Hernia?

Are you experiencing the symptoms of a hernia? Have you seen or felt a noticeable lump or bulge, that can be pushed back in, or that disappears when lying down? Does the lump become more noticeable when you laugh, cough, cry, strain or lift something? You might have a hernia. To learn more about the different types and symptoms of a hernia, visit our hernia condition profile.
