Pope Francis will reportedly have surgery for an abdominal hernia in Rome after he complained of stomach pains. The procedure is set to take place on Wednesday, according to the Vatican. Following the surgery, Francis is expected to remain in the hospital for a few more days. 

The 86-year-old is apparently going to be put under anesthesia, given that his medical team noted that the pontiff would need surgery to address a “recurrent, painful and worsening” constriction of the intestine, per Daily Mail.
