Inguinal hernia - is surgery the only option?

<p>Mild case in young female adult. Does this <em>require</em> surgery or are there alternatives?</p>

<p>broetchen- Wiki it for your answer. Be prepared for graphic photographs.</p>

<p>I consulted 2 doctors about this same issue, and was told that it need never be treated if it doesn’t hurt or bother you.</p>

<p>My great aunt had one. We stuck a silver dollar on it and wrapped duck tape around it to hold it down. Do that for a week, it really helps</p>
