I am 20 year old male. Last year I had testicle torsion surgery. Now a day before I started to have pain in my abdomen and now I have been diagnosed with unobstructed inguinal hernia with no strangulation noted. Is it serious? And can it be cured without surgery? And how long does it take to recover?

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue, such as part of the intestine, protrudes through a weak spot in the abdominal muscles. The resulting bulge can be painful, especially when you cough, bend over or lift a heavy object. However, many hernias do not cause pain. An inguinal hernia isn't necessarily dangerous. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a treatment plan for you.
