Surgery in Riga: Experienced Surgeons and State-of-the-Art Procedures

General surgery deals with the surgical treatment of diseases of the abdominal cavity, skin, and soft tissues.

Most surgeries today are performed laparoscopically—using small incisions and resulting in a quick recovery.

A timely consultation with a surgeon helps you choose the safest and least invasive treatment option.

Symptoms

When is a consultation with a surgeon necessary?

A consultation is also recommended if your family doctor or another specialist has referred you to a surgeon. A consultation with a surgeon may be necessary if you notice:

Growths on or under the skin that are growing or causing problems

Around the groin, navel, or scar

Recurring pain in the right side of the abdomen, especially after heavy meals

Enlarged lymph nodes of unknown cause

Pain or swelling in the tailbone area

Significant excess weight, if other methods have not helped

Important! Sudden, severe abdominal pain accompanied by a fever or vomiting may indicate an acute condition. In such cases, seek medical attention immediately.

Laparoscopic surgery is a surgical method in which the procedure is performed through several small incisions using a video camera and fine instruments. Most abdominal surgeries can now be performed laparoscopically.

Smaller incisions and less severe postoperative pain

Faster recovery and a return to everyday life

Lower risk of infection

Better cosmetic results

Safety

Should I be worried about the surgery?

Many patients delay treatment because they are afraid of surgery or anesthesia.

Modern surgery is safe—operations are performed by experienced surgeons, and anesthesia is monitored by an anesthesiologist. Most patients go home the same day or the next day after surgery.

Timely treatment helps prevent complications and more complex surgeries in the future.
