A member asked:
Lately, occasionally when i laugh to hard or cough to hard i feel a bubbling in my right groin area. i asked my doctor is this could be the beginnings of a hernia, but she said if its not painful its not. its not painful. it bulges a tiny bit?

The "bubbling" and the "bulging" may represent a small inguinal hernia, which may contain a small length of bowel, and the described effect will be apparent. Without pain, the hernia can enlarge and become problematic, so see a general surgeon for guidance.
