hi this is from the uk's nhs as you said that you have a hernia. an inguinal hernia occurs when fatty tissue or a part of your bowel such as the intestine pokes through into your groin at the top of your inner thigh. the hernia can appear as a swelling or lump in your groin or as an enlarged scrotum. the lump is often painless but it can become suddenly and severely painful if the blood supply to the section of organ or tissue trapped in the hernia has become cut off (strangulation). so hence the pain and this would lead on to infertility. if its that bad and you want a child then its time to get it worked on. hope this helps you. good luck
