Abdominal wall laxit: Dear Amanda102: This could represent a ventral hernia, rectus diastasis or abdominal wall laxity or a combination of all three. Please visit a board certified plastic surgeon for physical examination and proper imaging. You could also seek the opinion of a general surgeon if you believe you have a hernia
