To understand Maslowâs thinking itâs worth noting some of his main assertions: 1  Broadly, as one set of needs is met, the next level of needs become more of a motivator to an individual. 2  A satisfied need is not a motivator. 3  Only unsatisfied needs motivate an individual.
What is an Inguinal hernia? An inguinal hernia is a common condition in infancy and childhood, and is the most common surgical operation in childhood. An inguinal hernia occurs when tissue or part of the intestine pushes through a weak spot in the abdominal wall in the groin area, causing a bulge in the groin or scrotum.
An inguinal hernia (say IN-gwuh-nul HER-nee-uh) occurs when tissue pushes through a weak spot in your groin muscle. This causes a bulge in the groin or scrotum. The 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. You are more likely to get a hernia if you are overweight or you do a lot of lifting, coughing, or straining. Hernias are more common in men. A woman may get a hernia while she is pregnant because of the pressure on her belly wall. The main symptom of an inguinal hernia is a bulge in the groin or scrotum. It often feels like a round lump. The bulge may form over a period of weeks or months. Or it may appear all of a sudden after you have been lifting heavy weights, coughing, bending, straining, or laughing.
