Should i undergo inguinal hernia surgery?

Probably: If you have a hernia that is enlarging or causing sone pressure or discomfort symptons, then yes have hernia surgery. Risks depend on your overall health ; surgical risks. A hernia will not resolve without surgery ; you can watch a small hernia if your doctor says it is alright to observe it.

Depends: If you have pain or a non-reducible bulge than yes. If it does not bother you than know. Best thing is to see a surgeon and you can decide together.
