The first sign to look for is a bulge. If the bulge flattens out when u lay down or press on it then it does require medical attention but its not an emergency but should definitly be looked at. If the bulge does not flatten out then it need immediate medical attention. Signs of having a hernia are pain mostly, it could be dull and achy or sharp and sudden in some cases its both. It will hurt more throughout the day, if you are standing for long periods of time, if you are exerting yourself too much or even when you are using the restroom. Those are the main times u will feel pain, also u may feel a weakness or pressure in your groin area. If you believe you may have a hernia the best option is to get checked out by a doctor.
