A member asked:
Went to er for stomach pain when stretching. ultrasound showed hernia in bellybutton and sent home . pain still there, how do i know if strangulated?

Where is the pain?: Is the pain at the hernia site at your bellybutton? Or is it higher up? Any nausea/vomiting? Many people have hernias that don't cause strangulation, but if your bowel were strangulated you'd likely be very sick.
