A member asked:
Can ventral hernia's cause internal bleeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If a ventral hernia becomes stuck (incarcerated), it can block off the blood supply to a part of the intestines, which can then turn in to gangrene and bleed. This is associated with severe pain. Hope this helps!
