Detailed Answer:
Hello sir and welcome.

Thank you for writing to us.

I have gone through your query with diligence and would like you to know that I am here to help. I understand you must be in a lot of pain sir, but the most important thing right now is a physical examination because hernias can recur, especially in the same place.

For this reason, I would first recommend a doctors visit and then a few recommendations like:

+Cold pack on the region
+Please try to get as much rest as possible
+Avoid using the staircase
+Mild pain management medications like ibuprofen, diclofenac, etc.
+Do not lift any objects

Please do consider visiting a doctor for a physical examination and may be even an ultrasound of the region. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications, I am always here to help.

Best wishes.
