A member asked:
Can a hernia make a stomach look pregnant ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on size: and location of hernia. A hernia of the abdominal wall is defect in the fascia which envelops the abdomen and prevents viscera from protruding out. A pregnant uterus presses on the fascia, causing it to stretch. So appearance might be similar, but the process is completely different.
