A member asked:
Is inguinal hernia with no bulge possible? i have occasional dull pain and tingling sensation in that area
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, it is.: An inguinal hernia is certainly possible without an obvious bulge. Most of the time, a physician will be able to detect it by physical exam. If you continue to have the discomfort, see your doctor.
