Inguinal hernia!!!

Heather
Hey everyone. I've been having really bad pelvic pressure and pain for a few weeks now so I went to my doctor. Come to find out I have an inguinal hernia right in my groin area. It is extremely painful and I'm on my feet 10 hrs a day at a hospital. Did or does anyone else have one of these? and if so how do you regulate the pain? I know I have to have surgery but I can't right now since I'm so far along. Will they take me out of work early or would I need a c-section?
