An inguinal hernia occurs when a part of the intestine or fatty tissue pushes through a weak spot or opening in the abdominal muscles, typically in the lower abdomen or groin area. It’s more common in men and can be caused by a combination of factors such as heavy lifting, straining during physical activity, or even playing sports like football, which may have contributed to the hernia. The pain and swelling you experience, especially after eating or carrying heavy objects, are typical symptoms as the pressure on the abdomen increases. Though many inguinal hernias are small and may not cause immediate serious problems, they can worsen over time or become incarcerated (trapped), leading to more severe symptoms. The best course of action usually involves seeking medical advice. In many cases, hernias are managed with surgery to repair the weakened area, especially if the hernia is painful or getting larger. Non-surgical options like wearing a truss or support belt might be suggested temporarily, but surgery is often the long-term solution to prevent complications. You should consult with a doctor to discuss treatment options tailored to your specific condition.
