A member asked:
How do i find out where can an inguinal hernia be located?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
In the groin: In the inguinal canal, roughly between the pubic bone and the iliac spine. It can be direct or indirect, but you usually can't tell until the time of operation. If you have a hernia and it is painful, uncomfortable, or unsightly, you should have it surgically repaired.
