it does not get infected, it may get strangulated and then it becomes a life threatning emergency, do see a surgeon for advice, good luck

Infected Hernia

I take it you have an abdominal hernia. A surgeon could tell you best if you can let it go or not. The risk with a hernia is that the intestine, which has pushed through the muscle wall, will get stuck there, and lacking circulation will necrose, or die. This causes gangrene and peritonitis and is a medical emergency.

it can get strangulated then you have a problem. Best place to go and cheap too is in Toronto . Shouldice has done thousands of these surgeries. My husband had both hernias done there and never had another problem. SHouldice is only operating on hernias and highly recommended. We went there from NC to get the best.

Hernia surgery is very safe nowadays. My cousin got her Hernia and Gall bladder surgery in India by the company called Forerunners Healthcare .The Price for the surgery she paid in India was very less. She paid 30% of the cost she was quoted in America.
Forerunners Healthcare is very famous in India. They arrange Gall bladder, Appendix and Laparoscopy surgery for foreigners in India. I read a lot about them in the Newspapers and about their patient stories. They arrange financing for USA, Canadian, UK and other international patients who plan to have surgery abroad for low price, as Hernia, Gall bladder, appendix and other minimal invasive surgery is not covered by insurance. They also have photos pasted of their International patients. You can checkout their website. There are huge cost savings. As a doctor I personally believe that surgery can be easily handled in India, as the quality of healthcare available In India is simply best in the world. The surgeons are USA/UK trained and facilities are 5 star.
