A hernia occurs when an organ or tissue pushes through a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Right-sided abdominal pain can be caused by an inguinal or femoral hernia, which is when part of the intestine or fat protrudes through the abdominal wall.
Symptoms of a hernia may include:
A visible bulge on the right side of the abdomen, which may become more noticeable when coughing or straining
Pain or tenderness at the site of the bulge
Feeling of heaviness in
