A hernia is a condition that develops due to a spot weakness in a muscle, through which an organ or tissue squeezes or bulges through.
Muscles are usually strong and tight enough to keep your organs and intestines in place, but a hernia can develop if there are any weak spots.
There are different types of hernias that develop inside different parts of the body, causing an abnormal bulging of one area into another.
Muscles weakness & straining are the main causes.
Poor nutrition, over exertion, smoking, obesity are some of the factors which cause weakness of muscles.
Constipation, pregnancy and persistent coughing can also cause the condition worse.
Femoral hernia. This is more common in women especially those who are pregnant & obese.
It occurs when the bladder or intestines enter the canal carrying the femoral artery – Just below the inguinal ligament, in the femoral canal.
A femoral hernia occurs when tissue, such as fatty tissue or part of the bowel, pushes through a weakness in the abdominal wall into the upper thigh:
Common Symptoms
- A bulge below the inguinal ligament – in the upper thigh, just below the groin. The bulge is more visible while standing up, lift something heavy, or strain.
- Groin discomfort that may be worse when you stand, lift something heavy, or strain.
- Sudden groin or thigh pain, or pain in the hip that worsens while straining.
- Nausea and vomiting, in severe cases.
- Chronic constipation can be a red flag for a hernia. A hernia can lean on the bowel, making it difficult to pass stool or gas.
Possible Causes & Risk Factors
- Straining the tummy on the toilet, such as from constipation
- Carrying or pushing heavy loads
- Obesity
- Having a chronic, heavy cough
- More common in women, especially older women, due to the wider shape of the female pelvis
DO’S & DONT’S
- Do gentle exercise regularly this will help to strengthen the muscles.
- Eat a good nutritious diet to avoid constipation and do not overeat.
- Emphasize high-fiber foods. Fruits, vegetables and whole grains contain fiber that can help prevent constipation and straining.

- During pregnancy gentle exercises are important to maintain the tone of the muscles.
- In case of persistent cough consult your doctor.
