I want to know what's the medical therapy of hernia?

Depends on location: But if you are talking about inguinal hernias, there is no medical treatment. Hernia truss is only a temporizing measure at best. If inguinal hernia is symptomatic, surgical repair is only solution. Consult a surgeon for specific advice in your case.
