[|Human|] I have a history of a hernia which was diagnosed 2 years ago. Today is the first day that I noticed I did not have my normal bulge which has been there for 10 years. I was admitted to the hospital yesterday after passing out following a bowel, I was discharged today from the hospital because they thought I had a cardiac issue, I have never had this type of issue before. The day before I wore a tight girdle which provided much relief from a large hernia that I was diagnosed with 2 years ago. I kept asking if by wearing the girdle I could have caused an issue with the bowel, I was told no. While I was in the hospital, I have had no appetite and I shared concerns that when I tried to eat anything today it caused discomfort in my abdomen. I also developed a headache on the left side. Since I have been home I have vomited just a little, have not urinated or had a bowl movement, I have a sharp pain on my right side and pain in my back which is also on the right side, and woke up with night sweats. Is this something to be concerned about now or can I wait till morning.
[|AI|]  Hello! Thank you for the query. The main problem with hernia is that it may stick and cause bowels obstruction. And you never know when and if its happens. Typical symptoms of bowels obstruction are nausea, vomiting, lack of stool and gasses, bloating and sometimes cramps. The other thing is that you have also urinating problems and back pain. This makes kidney infection very possible. Actually with bowels obstruction kidney infection can appear as you do not absorb water and do not urinate enough. Both conditions can be life-threatening. That is why you should not wait with them. Please go to ER. Urinalysis, abdominal x-ray and ultrasound are necessary. Surgery might be the only treatment. Hope this will help. Regards.
