A member asked:

Where can you have a hernia besides your belly button?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hernias: Most common hernias are groin (inguinal) hernias in men. Ventral and epigastric hernias above the umbilical area are less common. Hernias can also occur at old surgical scars from past surgery.
