A member asked:
Is jogging ok for people with a hernia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hernia jog: Running with a hernia should be fine as long as you are not experiencing pain. If you have pain, you need to back off of your exercise. The danger of a hernia is the risk of it becoming incarcerated/strangulated which would cause significant pain. This can occasionally require emergency surgery.
