A member asked:
I am in dire help. the lower left side of my stomach is higher and more plump then the lower right side. can it be a hernia and what are the symptoms?

It could be...: There are several possibilities. It could be something as common as gas/constipation, since stool tends to back up in the lower left side of your abdomen or it could be a hernia. A hernia can be painless, or it can be very painful, so pain is not always a good indicator. Sometimes a hernia is "reducible", meaning it can get smaller or disappear if you are lying down. It is best to see your Dr.
