Depends on the type: The most common type of hernia in a male, a hernia in the groin area (inguinal), often will feel like a sensation of fullness or pressure when lifting objects, having a bowel movement, or going abdominal exercise like sit-ups. Other types of hernia would be uncommon unless you've had prior abdominal surgeries or other medical problems.
