Repair hernia: Hernias of the abdominal wall can remain stable or progress. They are unable to heal spontaneously. These hernias can develop complications; like incarceration or strangulation, (organs trapped by the hernia defect). Okay to get in to your doc for an evaluation and surgical referral. A hernia repair is safe, durable and effective. Recovery has restrictions for about 6 weeks. Be well.

Pain: Swelling, bulge at site. Inguinal, umbilical? Other? Hernias can occur in a number of places. May be identified after lifting, propensity was likely there already!
