Can i drink and have sex with an inguinal hernia?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Drinking and sex: Yes you can. The only time you can't drink and have sex is during the surgery to repair the hernia.

Yes: By drinking i will answer as if this were a reference to alcohol, and that should not affect the hernia. Sexual activity shoul also not be affected, but if it does happen to cause pain or discomfort, ease up. See a general surgeon for an exam and more info regarding your case.
