Your family doctor could diagnosis it, but you would need a general surgeon to fix it. A general surgeon is one that specializes in abdominal surgery, like hernia repairs. That is, making sure the intestine is in the proper place and closing the hole in the abdominal muscles. gracelyn Â· 9 years ago.
A hernia occurs whenever an internal organ protrudes through an abnormal part of the body. A hernia most commonly occurs when a portion of the intestines pushes through the abdominal wall. Once a doctor determines that symptoms indicate a hernia, that doctor schedules a consultation with a surgeon for the patient. The surgeon then determines the best surgical course of action.
