I mean, I think you basically answered your own question. You need the surgery because it hurts, it's a pain in your daily life, it shows through your bikini, and things aren't going to magically get better on their own. Look, I'm no doctor, so I can't tell you if there are worse complications coming down the line. As for pregnancy? No clue, but I know some women end up with a hernia during childbirth because of all that straining.
Every single surgery carries a risk, even the tiny ones, but this is pretty much routine stuff performed every day in hospitals across the country. Getting checked out beforehand is standard procedure. Honestly, I don't see why you're stressing. Just go see your primary care physician; have them take a look and get you a referral to a specialist. They’ll be the ones to decide if and when you need to go under the knife.
Anyway, good luck from me and Nancy Watson86, and hang in there, swiftridge90. Don't let fear get to you. :-)
