Does The Hernia Affect Colon And Prostate?
I am 44 years old and i have an inguinal hernia and it is been two years since i noticed it. Does the hernia may affect the colon? And will it affect also the prostate? Please enlighten me doctor and does anyone of you perform a no mesh operation on hernia?

and welcome to Healthcare magic.Thank you for the query.
No, hernia will not affect these organs unless these are inside the hernia and this is rare. However, surgery is definitely recommened since some serious complciations may develop in untreated hernia such as incarceration and strangulation.
Wish you good health. Regards
