What Are Symptoms Of Strangulated Hernia?

My adult son, age 54 is suffering from a hernia which bulges and is causing moderate pain - he is also constipated. He works doing physical labor in property management and refuses to see a doctor because he has no health insurance......what are the symptoms of a strangulated hernia and would a truss be helpful?
