Hernias of the abdominal wall:
There are several kinds of hernias located in the abdominal area; they are protrusions due to the rupture and spacing of the muscle fibres of the abdomen, which constitute the abdominal wall. Through this "breach" abag is formed of peritoneum and covered with skin (known as hernial sac) with, at its base, the neck orcervix. The hernia generally contains fat fabric, sometimes it contains a segment of the small intestine or even a segment of the colon, and exceptionally it could contain the appendix or an ovary.

A hernia of the abdominal wall will present a protrusion of abnormal size on the abdomen or in the area. In certain cases where the hernia is not very bulky, it can appear intermittently and it remains hardlyperceptible. In other cases, where the hernia is larger, the principal complication remains the strangulation of the hernia, which in fact is entrapping the bowels.

The most current locations of the hernias are the groin (inguinal hernia), the navel (umbilical hernia) and the top of the thigh (crural hernia):

The inguinal hernia is more likely to occur in man because the spermatic cord passes through the abdominal wall in the inguinal region, making it a natural weakness prone to hernia formation. For thewoman, it is the round ligament holding the uterus, which creates a passage that can allow thedevelopment of a hernia. The hernia sits at the internal end of the groin and in man, it can go down more?or less towards the scrotum.
The umbilical hernia, more frequent among obese subjects and women, is characterized by the often voluminous protrusion of a portion of the intestine in the area of the navel.
The crural hernia, more frequent among obese women, consists of the protrusion of a portion of the intestine under the arcade which leaves passage to the femoral artery and vein from the abdomen towards the thigh. Often small in size, this hernia is generally not very painful.

Causes and consequences:
The hernias of the abdominal wall are due to the weakening of the muscles of the abdomen causing therupture of their fibres, that is to say the spacing of muscle fibres. The cause can be congenital or the result of the weakening of the concerned muscles. Overweight and the lack of exercise are often in question.

The interpretation from the viewpoint of the Greco-Arabic Medicine (Unani) is that the excess moisture and phlegm in the muscle tissue of the abdominal wall, is the main cause of its weakening. Indeed, observing anhernia it is easy to feel and see the that muscle tissue is filled with a viscous substance (phlegm) softeningthe muscles and damping down its tonus. Moreover, we can see that the majority of people affected by the problems of hernia, have a phlegmatic temperament.

To remedy this situation, it is recommended to avoid foods that increase body moisture and to take herbal complex which, on the one hand, rid the body of this excess of phlegm, by expelling it through the urine, the feces and sweating, and on the other hand strengthen the muscle fabric.

Hernias can appear or grow in volume when the abdominal pressure increases under the effect of an effort such as the abrupt lifting of a heavy object or a severe bout of coughing.

Hernias are often reducible; one can easily put the hernia back behind the abdominal wall through the neck (or passage) of the hernia by exerting a mild pressure. There is however a risk of complication bystrangulation if the hernia is formed by a portion of the intestine. The compression of intestinal fabric and theblood vessels at the neck of the hernia can provoke an obstruction of the bowels causing the arrest of theintestinal transit, distension, vomiting and greenish bile. This situation requires an urgent surgical intervention.

“Very satisfying product, I am using it for 2 years now and it is not over yet, however it was a fairly large hernia at the start.”
Mr. Lucien D. - Bordes de Rivière, France

“On your Website I have ordered 2 bottles of Phoenician Balm, at first I was quite neutral about its efficiency especially since I have an inguinal hernia dating 25 years back. In the last two months I have rubbed the lotion as indicated, emptying the whole bottle. I was wearing an old and worn out contention belt and at my age (71 years old) I kept on to do odd jobs about the house and garden (carrying rocks and stones, sand buckets up to 40 kg).

When I was about to order a new contention belt, I had the curiosity to perform the cough test; with my hand flat on the hernia, I did not feel the usual bulge, while on the other side I have another but small and untreated hernia that I could feel. I don’t’ dare taking my new contention belt off, I prefer to continue the treatment and to take care also of my small second hernia. I just want to testify about the Phoenician Balm efficiency: age 71 years old, a 25 years old hernia subjected to repeated efforts since I am an active handyman. And if I may add, the perfume of the lotion is truly manly. Thank you with all my gratitude.”
Mr. Antoine B. - France
