An inguinal hernia occurs when a portion of the intestine or abdominal tissue pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall, specifically in the inguinal canal located in the groin. This condition is more common in males and can affect one or both sides of the groin.
There are two types of inguinal hernias:
Indirect inguinal hernia: Present from birth due to a congenital defect.
Direct inguinal hernia: Develops over time due to muscle weakness.
Without treatment, hernias can worsen and lead to complications like strangulation, where blood flow to the trapped tissue is cut off—requiring emergency surgery.
Most inguinal hernias are identified through physical examination. Common symptoms include:
A visible bulge in the groin or scrotum
Pain or discomfort while lifting, coughing, or straining
Burning or aching sensation at the bulge
Heaviness in the groin area
Swelling around the testicles (in men)
If you notice any of these signs, consult a doctor immediately. Delaying inguinal hernia surgery can increase the risk of complications.
Some common causes of inguinal hernias include:
Increased pressure within the abdomen
Straining during bowel movements or urination
Heavy lifting without proper technique
Obesity
Chronic cough
Pregnancy
Risk factors include age, family history of hernias, smoking, and certain medical conditions that cause chronic coughing or straining.
Our doctors at MedEase Health will:
Conduct a physical exam to detect the bulge.
Check for hernia when standing and while coughing.
Recommend an ultrasound or CT scan in rare or unclear cases.
Once the diagnosis is confirmed, our surgical team will guide you on the best treatment approach.
There are two primary surgical techniques for repairing inguinal hernias:
In open surgery, the surgeon makes an incision in the groin and pushes the herniated tissue back into place. A mesh may be placed to strengthen the abdominal wall.
Benefits:
Effective for large or recurrent hernias
Suitable for patients not eligible for general anesthesia
This minimally invasive surgery uses small incisions, a camera (laparoscope), and specialized instruments to repair the hernia.
Benefits:
Less postoperative pain
Minimal scarring
Shorter hospital stay
Faster recovery

Avoid heavy lifting for a few weeks
Eat a high-fiber diet to prevent straining

Though inguinal hernia repair is safe, every surgery has potential risks, such as:
Infection
Bleeding
Mesh-related complications
Recurrence
Pain or numbness near incision site
At MedEase Health, we prioritize safety and surgical excellence to minimize risks.
You should consider inguinal hernia surgery if:
The bulge is growing
There’s consistent pain or discomfort
It interferes with daily life
You experience nausea, vomiting, or constipation (signs of obstruction)
Early surgery prevents complications like strangulation, which is a medical emergency.
