Event Details

Do you think you may have a hernia? This Hernia Awareness Month, join us for a FREE screening and community seminar with Dr. Taesun Moon to learn if you have a hernia and what treatments are available.

  • A hernia is the bulging of an organ or tissue through the wall of the cavity containing it.
  • The most common sign of a hernia is a visible lump or bulge where you shouldn’t have one, typically in your abdomen or at the top of your inner thigh.
  • The bulge may form over a period of weeks or months, or may appear suddenly after completing certain activites, such as lifting heavy items, bending, straining, coughing, or laughing.
  • You may feel a dull ache or sharp pain, pressure, or nothing at all.

Call 814-467-3653 to register by 6/12! Seating is limited.

Located in WindberPlace at CSSMCW. (Top of 7th Street, next to Windber Hospice)
