Professor Tas Qureshi, Introduction

Professor Tas Qureshi introduces himself as a general surgeon who has been in Dorset for over 10 years. He’s a specialist in keyhole surgery, and also does robotic surgery and enhanced recovery.

Do hernias go away without surgery?

Professor Tas Qureshi explains that hernias won’t disappear; unless they’re operated on. No tablet will take the hernia away. It will require an operation. If you decide against an operation, do note that there are risks of leaving hernias.

What are the signs of bowel cancer?

Professor Tas Qureshi lists some of the signs of bowel cancer, including increased frequencies, passing blood into the poo, losing weight, feeling a lump in the stomach, or a feeling of fullness in the back passage.

A hernia looks like a lump protruding from your skin. A hernia occurs when an internal organ pushes through a weakness in the muscle or surrounding tissue wall. There are several different types of hernia.

A hernia won’t naturally disappear and you will need an operation to remove it. Speak to Professor Tas Qureshi if you need hernia surgery.

Bowel cancer, also known as colorectal cancer, is a general term for cancer that begins in the large bowel.

Professor Tas Qureshi specialises in laparoscopic and robotic surgery for colorectal cancer.
