Hi,
The inguinal hernia cannot be treated by medication. The only treatment is surgical reduction of hernia and putting mesh. Laproscopic repair is best one if suitable to you.
There is no need to take any precaution in food. You can consult any nearby general surgeon or gastro surgeon for detailed evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
