Hi

Thanks for posting your query

Need some information before I can stamp a diagnosis :

1] Is there any history of injury ?
2] Are you constipated ?
3] Is there any swelling or bulge in the groin area which reduces when you lie down ?

Get back with this information & I will try to help you out
Wishing you a speedy recovery

Respected sir,
1. not such any incidence of injury recently.
2. Yeah i'm really constipated and addicted to news paper reading in toilets and daily it takes 2-3 times in the morning to clear.
3. there is no specific swelling but it feels a little bulge

Hi

Thanks for your followup

The only thing I would suggest is reassure yourself and take some analgesic twice daily for 3-5 days

But avoid sitting in toilet for more than 3 mins

Take a good preparation of isaphgul 15-20 gms at bed time

Hope this helps

Hi

Actually we are not supposed to prescribe medicines without examining the patient

You may go to a chemist and ask for anything like Diclofenac & Serratiopeptidase combination take it twice a day

If there is a bulge go for ultrasound scan as it can be a Hernia

Hope this helps
Am available for any followup queries

You may there is no interaction with it

It can cause some acidity so take it after meals

Nothing serious, it is a small defect and can be corrected surgically
