NW Health Hosting Free Hernia Screening

February 11 @ 5:00 pm - 7:00 pm MST

Local residents can take a proactive step in their wellness journey next month when Northwest Healthcare hosts a Free Hernia Screening at Oro Valley Hospital (1551 E. Tangerine Rd.) on Wednesday, February 11th, from 5:00 to 7:00 PM. Medical professionals emphasize that early detection is crucial, since hernias often start as small, painless conditions that can develop into serious medical emergencies without treatment.

The screening is especially recommended for adults who notice a bulge or lump in the abdomen or groin, as well as athletes, people who regularly lift heavy objects, or those with a family history of hernias. Warning signs include pain or discomfort while bending or lifting, a feeling of weakness or pressure in the abdomen, and burning or aching sensations at the site of a bulge.

Taking control of your health now can help you avoid future complications. The event is free to the community, and light refreshments will be provided for all attendees.
