An inguinal hernia occurs when tissues protrude through weak points in the abdominal wall as a result of conditions that increase intra-abdominal pressure. Chronic cough, constipation, heavy lifting, straining during urination, obesity, and genetic connective tissue weakness are among the most common risk factors; therefore, a general surgery evaluation should be sought without delay if swelling or pain is noticed in the groin.
