it is possible. it is best to get that checked out right away, better to be safe than damaged or dead. ask him if he can remember how long it has been hurting. these are the answers to the questions the doctor will ask you. know before time, so when the time comes, you'll be ready to answer. for this reason, less confusion, less fear, less worrying and more understanding of the situation involving your husbands' pain.
have a good day when you get this.

since it's on his leg, it's not a hernia. most likely a pulled muscle. watch out with that icy hot. it's a little to close to the important stuff and it'll burn.

Hernia pain does not present itself on the inner thigh. There is a femoral artery where you specify, sometimes virus can cause discomfort there if you know what I mean. If the pain continues, see an MD.

It could be a hernia, yeah. Might want to get that looked at.

Does he do sports? i have the same prob. but mine is from the cup that i wear. it rubs and then after a while it will swell up. not to much tho . i don't think it is a hernia. but if it hurts bad then go check it out

sounds like a pulled groin if it up in his groin area, ibuprofen, and rest are the best thing,
hernias are more in the pubic hair area
