Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Inguinal hernia which is extending to scrotum as per your history can only be healed by means of operation.
The operation is called 'hernioraphy'.
You need to get evaluated and operated by Surgeon. So kindly contact accordingly and plan for your Surgery as it cannot be cured by medications. Get it done at the earliest to prevent complications arising out of it.
Wish you good luck.
