| 释义 | hernia (once / 9801 pages) n A hernia is a rip in your muscle tissue that leads to an organ protruding through the muscle. It's painful and dangerous. Your organs all have a place in your body. However, sometimes an injury causes a rip in your soft muscle tissue, pushing an organ out of its home. This injury is a hernia, which often involves the abdomen bursting through the surrounding tissue. Sometimes people get a hernia after trying to lift something too heavy. A hernia can also involve a spinal disc that gets pushed out of place. Any type of hernia is a very serious medical condition.
