How can a inguinal hernia be disproved without visiting hospital?

Outpatient surgery?: Some questions for you: Are you a weight lifter; will the post-operative recovery and associated lifting restrictions be overly burdensome to you; how reducible and sizable is the hernia presently?

Exam, studies: You can "disprove" that there is a hernia usually by a simple physical exam. If there is any question, a ct scan can also be helpful.
