A member asked:
I do bhastrika pranayama every morning for 15 minutes with medium force and medium speed on empty stomach. can it cause hernia to me in future?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Pranayama is used to: increase oxygen. it can also be stomach muscle exercise. See doc to rule out abdominal or groin weakness first. Forceful exhales can weaken hernia or catch bowel which is not good. Peace and good health.
