Prepared by the clinical content team and reviewed by the General Surgery team, Swastik Hospital, Sushant Lok 2, Sector 57, Gurugram. Last updated: 24 October 2026. The word “surgery” has a way of making a dull ache feel like a verdict. A lump in the groin that has been there for months. A stomach pain that comes back after fatty food. A fissure you were too embarrassed to mention. People put off seeing a surgeon for exactly these everyday problems, and the delay is usually what turns a simple procedure into an emergency. This guide explains what general surgery covers, which conditions need it, what to expect, and when to stop waiting and walk into a hospital in Sector 57, Gurugram. Quick answer: General surgery treats common conditions of the abdomen and digestive system, plus lumps, wounds and infections that need an operation. Typical examples are hernia, gallstones, appendicitis, piles, fissure, fistula and abscess. Many of these can be treated with keyhole (laparoscopic) surgery, with quicker recovery. Sudden severe abdominal pain, a hard painful lump that will not go back in, or heavy bleeding needs emergency care immediately. What does a general surgeon treat? A general surgeon is trained to diagnose and operate on a wide range of problems, mostly in the abdomen. At Swastik Hospital, the general surgery department handles: Common conditions, in plain language Hernia A hernia is a bulge that appears when part of the intestine or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall. It does not heal on its own and tends to grow slowly. Surgery repairs the weak area, often with a mesh. Read our detailed guide to hernia symptoms and treatment in Gurugram. Gallbladder stones Stones can cause repeated pain in the upper right abdomen, often after a heavy or oily meal, with nausea or bloating. If symptoms keep returning, the standard treatment is removal of the gallbladder by keyhole surgery. Learn more in our article on gallbladder stone treatment. Appendicitis Typically it starts as pain around the navel that shifts to the lower right abdomen, with fever, vomiting and loss of appetite. This is a surgical emergency, because a delay can lead to a burst appendix. Piles, fissure and fistula These anal conditions are common and very treatable, yet many people suffer in silence. Symptoms include bleeding after passing stool, pain, itching or discharge. Early treatment, sometimes with diet changes and medicines alone, avoids the need for major surgery. Abscess and lumps A painful, swollen, warm collection of pus usually needs to be drained by a surgeon. Lumps that grow, change or cause pain should always be examined. Signs you should see a surgeon soon Go to the emergency room immediately if… Swastik Hospital offers 24×7 emergency care. Please call ahead if you can, but do not delay reaching help. Keyhole (laparoscopic) vs open surgery In keyhole surgery, the surgeon operates through a few small cuts using a camera and fine instruments. For suitable patients, it generally means less pain, smaller scars, shorter hospital stay and faster return to routine. Open surgery is still the better, safer option in some situations, such as complicated or emergency cases, and the surgeon will choose based on your condition, not on fashion. How the process works Typical recovery (a general guide) These timelines vary with age, health, the exact procedure and whether surgery was planned or emergency. Your surgeon will give you specific instructions.
