It does sound like a hernia. Sometimes, hernias can be felt, so feel around the area and see if you can feel something similar to a bump. If you don't, it does not mean you don't have one. Some are just less obvious.

Definately have it checked out. It will require surgery but it is generally about 30 minutes from your downtime - even less depending on the pacing of the surgeon. Don't let the thought of surgery deter you from being healthy though.

Possibly. I would get it checked out by a doctor.
