"Stomach hernias" ?: With proven hernias "in the stomach", presumably this means in the abdominal wall in the stomach area. Weight lifting including pullups is potentially going to increase the hernia size and cause a need for emergent surgery. A referral to a general surgeon to review testing results and advise as to exercise parameters is indicated.
