Putting the guts back in- inguinal hernia repair.

Daisy came to visit me last month because she had became extremely unwell overnight. She had been vomiting alot and was in pain and reluctant to move around. When I examined her she was extremely dehydrated and she was very painful in her belly. In her groin we found a large swelling that was painful to touch. I did an ultrasound on it and found that it contained gas. 

Based on these findings she was diagnosed with a strangulated inguinal hernia.
