General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

I understand your concern and I realize that this answer is coming a bit late for you to be useful. I hope your husband has already undergone the intervention. If not, the situation, although uncomfortable, can wait unless there is drastically increased pain, fever and inflammation to the area, which are signs of hernia incarceration and represent a medical emergency and requires immediate treatment.

I hope this helps.
Wishing you all the best.
