Weird question...is it possible for a hernia to cause intestines to fall in the scrotum?

Not weird questions: Yes possible large inguinal hernias bowel enters the scrotum , you need to see your surgeon before causing complications like strangulation of bowel. Elective ( planed ) surgery is a simple low risk out patient procedure .

It is: not a weird question! Scrotal hernias can occur. If you think you have one, or if you feel any scrotal lump/mass, please see your doc for evaluation.
