Live your life: I would suggest you live your life as normal as possible. Wearing some sort of perineal support may be helpful. These are very difficult hernias to deal with, and you would need a hernia specialist if you wanted this repaired. You can find surgeons interested in hernia disease at the Americas Hernia Society website. Hope this helps!
