Brief Answer:
It might cause such gargling sounds

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

Gurgling may be caused by the hernia, especially if you experience pain in the are of the hernia. You can wait and watch if you still have the normal gastrointestinal function, i.e., normal stools and ability to eat and drink without vomiting.

Hope this helps. Let me know if I can assist you further.
