Inguinal hernia repair is a common surgical procedure. Inguinal hernias occur when part of the membrane lining the abdominal cavity (omentum) or intestine protrudes through a weak spot in the abdomen â often along the inguinal canal, which carries the spermatic cord in men.
If you do not have an inguinal hernia, see information on common types of hernias. These include incisional, epigastric, and umbilical hernias in children and adults. An inguinal hernia (say IN-gwuh-nul HER-nee-uh) occurs when tissue pushes through a weak spot in your groin muscle.he bulge may hurt or burn. Most inguinal hernias happen because an opening in the muscle wall does not close as it should before birth. That leaves a weak area in the belly muscle. Pressure on that area can cause tissue to push through and bulge out. A hernia can occur soon after birth or much later in life.
