Darkening of Areolas: If you are pregnant, the skin around your nipples may get darker. Food Cravings or Food Aversions: While you may not have a strong desire to eat pickles and ice cream, many women feel cravings for certain foods when they are pregnant. This can last throughout your entire pregnancy.
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.
Tissue from the intestines can also pass into this tunnel, forming an inguinal hernia. There are two main types: indirect hernias, which are usually congenital and common in boys, and direct hernias, which are more common in adult men. They can occur in both sides of the body. This also occurs when some tissue pushes through in the groin, a little lower down than where an inguinal hernia occurs.
