Hi,
Your hernia is not the cause, as hernia only can do colicky abdominal pain and in severe cases can cause constipation. My suggestion to you that you go for stool analysis and colonoscopy to see whats going there in your colon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
