| Re: Do Hernias feel soft or hard?
Hernia's are typically soft. Usuallly if you push on it, it will go back in, but then pop out again when you let go. You have a layer of tissue, just like the kind that is thin and strong that lays over a piece of raw chicken. This is called the fasia. It lays over the muscle under the fat. When it becomes weak or tears the intestines can bulge through it. The reason it's important to get it fixed is because the intestines can become stuck in the whole and it can harm or kill the bowel. The pain can come and go but eventually it will stay. You need to get checked out by a surgen but it does sound like that is what you have.
