“Research on hernia prevention is almost non-existent, so you can not follow any specific methods. But it is possible to reduce your risk by keeping your body weight in check, taking care of your diet, avoiding work that stresses your abdominal area, doing regular exercise, maintaining good posture and frequent self-examination for early detection. Whether you have had surgical repair of a hernia or are in the early stages of a hernia – symptoms can often be managed with appropriate physiotherapy intervention. Here are some simple things to increase your core strength and prevent hernia:
1.  Take a few deep breaths and do a few gentle crunches to strengthen your core muscles. 2.  Wear a belt around your waist. 3.  Try to reduce your weight. 4.  Lift heavy objects with your legs. 5.  Avoid twisting your body. 6.  If you bend, then bend at the knees and not your waist. 7.  Avoid lifting heavy weights or doing excessive exercise. ”
