Your muscles are usually strong enough to keep your intestines and organs in their proper place. Sometimes, however, your intra-abdominal tissues can be pushed through a weakened spot in your muscle when you overstrain. If a portion of tissue pushes through the wall of the femoral canal, it’s called a femoral hernia. A femoral hernia will appear as a bulge near the groin or thigh. The femoral canal houses the femoral artery, smaller veins, and nerves. It’s located just below the inguinal ligament in the groin.
A femoral hernia can also be called a femorocele.
Women are more likely than men to suffer from a femoral hernia. Overall, femoral hernias are not common. Most hernias that affect the groin are inguinal hernias, and fewer than 3 percent of all hernias are femoral. Most femoral hernias do not cause symptoms. However, they can occasionally lead to severe problems if the hernia obstructs and blocks blood flow to your intestines. This is called a strangulated hernia — it’s a medical emergency and requires immediate surgery.
Nux Vomica is often recommended for sharp, colicky pain or discomfort associated with hernias, particularly when aggravated by straining or overexertion. It is also useful for irritability and digestive complaints that often accompany a hernia.
Key symptoms: Pain in the groin area, irritability, constipation, and a feeling of tension or heaviness in the abdominal region. The pain may worsen with stress, overwork, or lifting.
Arnica is a well-known remedy for bruising and muscle strain. It’s useful for the inflammatory stage of a hernia, especially when there is pain, swelling, and tenderness in the affected area following any physical exertion or trauma.
Key symptoms: Soreness or bruising in the affected area, pain after exertion, and exhaustion from the effort. It’s also indicated if the hernia is due to physical trauma or strain.
Bellis Perennis is often used to treat hernia symptoms when there is inflammation and bruising. It’s especially useful when there is pain in the groin and the pain radiates toward the abdomen. It helps improve the overall health of the abdominal muscles and ligaments.
Key symptoms: Pain in the abdomen or groin with tenderness, especially after any form of physical exertion. There may be a sensation of fullness and distension in the abdomen.
Conium is useful for hernias that are slow to develop or progressive. It is also indicated when there is a feeling of heaviness or dragging pain in the lower abdomen and groin area.
Key symptoms: Sharp, dragging pain in the groin that becomes worse with movement and standing. A sensation of weakness and heaviness in the affected area, especially after prolonged standing or walking.
Calcarea Fluorica is indicated for weak, lax tissues or connective tissue in the abdomen, which can lead to the formation of hernias. It strengthens the abdominal wall and is useful when there is a tendency to develop hernias due to weakness in the tissue.
Key symptoms: Weakness in the abdominal or groin area, hernias, or protrusions that are aggravated by straining or lifting. There may also be pain or a sensation of weakness in the affected area.
Rhus Toxicodendron is indicated when the hernia is accompanied by pain or stiffness in the muscles of the groin or abdomen. It is especially useful when the hernia pain is worse on initial movement but improves with continued motion.
Key symptoms: Muscle stiffness, groin pain, and aching that worsens with rest or first movement and improves with continued motion or walking. The pain may be aggravated by cold, damp weather.
Lycopodium is a remedy for abdominal bloating, constipation, and discomfort in the lower abdomen. It can be beneficial when a hernia is related to digestive disturbances or weakness in the abdominal muscles.
Key symptoms: Abdominal bloating, constipation, flatulence, and groin pain or fullness. It is also helpful for weak digestion and frequent gas.
Plumbum is useful for atrophied abdominal muscles or muscle weakness contributing to hernias. It is especially helpful in cases where there is a loss of tone in the abdominal wall and muscle spasms.
Key symptoms: Weakness or atrophy of the abdominal muscles, constricted pain, and constipation. Plumbum can also be used if there is muscle wasting or pain in the groin area.
Silicea is often used to strengthen connective tissues and improve the integrity of the abdominal wall. It is helpful for individuals with a tendency to hernias or weak tissues in the abdomen and groin.
Key symptoms: Weakness and softness in the connective tissues, pain or tenderness in the groin area, and a tendency for hernias to reoccur. Silicea is also useful for wound healing or recovery after surgery.
Antimonium Crudum is used when there is indigestion, gas, and constipation, which may contribute to pressure on the abdominal wall and lead to hernias. It’s also indicated when hernia pain is associated with nausea or bloating.
Key symptoms: Abdominal distension, constipation, flatulence, and groin pain with a feeling of heaviness. It is also beneficial for those who feel nauseated or experience digestive disturbances alongside the hernia.
