What Treatment Is Possible To Repair Hernia?

The urologist today said I had a small hernia on my right side after I complained of pain in the groin that lasted for 2 or 3 days. He said it's nothing to worry about but I might need a repair in 5 or 6 years. I'm 62. Is this something I should worry about?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the condition if hernia is table then it is nothing to worry else the worse condition may needs immediate surgery, in old age it is better to take the great care of this, better to have the second opinion, hope this information helps.
