Is Tenderness Of Pubic Area And Swelling During Pregnancy Due To Hernia?
Hello there. Yes as per your history it could be a femoral hernia which usually occurs just below the groin crease. Since you have pain and soreness over the area , you need to consult a surgeon for proper examination and diagnosis. The other possibility can be a varicose vein which are very common in pregnancy and aggravate with work and prolonged standing. take care.
