Inguinal hernias are one of the hardest types for health experts to understand. Because of this they have a hard time trying to determine the exact cause for it. Most believe that extreme pressure in the stomach, a weak spot in the abdominal wall that is pre-existing, or both are the most common reasons for it.
According to research the majority of people who have an inguinal hernia have had a weak area in their abdominal wall since they were born. This occurs when the abdominal lining is not able to close properly during the development stage. In other cases when the patient is much older it can be caused when the muscles in the abdomen have become weak due to aging, heavy physical activity, or other factors such as this.

It is generally advisable to repair hernias in a timely fashion, in order to prevent complications such as organ dysfunction, gangrene, and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome. Most abdominal hernias can be surgically repaired, and recovery rarely requires long-term changes in lifestyle.
Uncomplicated hernias are principally repaired by pushing back, or “reducing”, the herniated tissue, and then mending the weakness in muscle tissue (an operation called herniorrhaphy). If complications have occurred, the surgeon will check the viability of the herniated organ, and resect it if necessary.
