Can a small yet very painful hernia be healed naturally?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be seen: Even though it is small by your description, you would well be served to be seen if it is painful. Even small hernias can become incarcerated and cause major problems. Be seen to discuss the specifics of your treatment options with a surgeon.
