A member asked:
Rectocele related to inguinal hernia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Inguinal hernia is a hole in the abdominal wall of the groin, and is unrelated to a rectocele, which is part of a spectrum of pelvic floor muscle weakness. You can have both entities present, but they ate not related. Hope this helps.
