2-Various degrees and types of pain
Hernias are common causes of medical emergency and urgent surgical procedures, and these cases can be extremely painful. However, in most cases, the pain is mild and vague, usually accentuated by physical exertion. The area of the lump is usually a source of discomfort that may stay for a long time depending on the position.
Keep in mind that patients with an abdominal hernia need surgery to fix this problem permanently, and it is better to have a scheduled surgery than performing the same procedure in an emergency setting. Thus, if you are experiencing the signs and symptoms in this list, talk to your doctor and follow his advice before it becomes a severe problem.
