A member asked:
Is it ok to golf with abdominal hernia?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Depends: If the hernia has been evaluated by a surgeon and you decided not to have it repaired, then it should be ok if it golfing does not cause you pain. If it was advised to have it repaired due to symptoms and size, then i would not recommend golf or any other heavy physical activity.

As tolerated: I tell my hernia patients to use common sense, and limit their activity based on symptoms. You should see your doctor however for a formal evaluation.
