hi greetings from healthcare magic
inguinal hernia over a period of 3 to 4 years , causing pain only on coughing and straining is as such not n emergency , specially if it can be reduced back manually by you
of importance here is :-
sudden severe dragging pain, with nausea and vomiting means obstruction and strangulation which needs immediate surgery . as of now you can take analgesics like paracetamol , avoid straining at stools and avoid heavy weight lifting , use a scrotal support
hope this helps
