Hi! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. If I were your doctor, after examining your abdomen including the hernial orifices clinically to rule out a developing inguinal hernia, would advise you for a routine stool test for ova and cyst, and a urine routine/microscopic/culture and sensitivity test and treat any kind of infection if found positive. In case of a female patient, I would also advise for a gynecological assessment to rule out a PID. An ultrasound abdomen might be helpful in the evaluation. Till then, you could go for an anti-spasmodic Chat Doctor. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
