Could be.  Everybody reacts to surgery different.  I would ask a Doc just in case.

Please see the web page for more details on Hernia repair. In some cases, hernia opration is not successful. Hence the same has to be done again.

Depending on where your hernia is, there are umbilical hernia's, hernia's near the groin. There are many kinds of hernias, but a typical hernia is a tear in the muscle that separates the abdomen from the groin. An abdominal organ pushes through the hole and is felt as a bulge in the groin. When the person lies down, the organ settles back into the abdomen. The repair is to close the hole. After the repair no muscles are seriously affected but you have to be careful of a reoccurrence.\nIf no procedure is done and the organ becomes trapped and cannot return to the abdomen, it is possible that blood flow can be cut off. This can result in a condition called strangulation, a life-threatening emergency. There are many different ways to repair a hernia, sometimes a mesh screen is used. Your best bet is to discuss with your doctor what type of hernia you have and what your options are then you can research what you think is the best procedure for you from there. Good Luck!

Im a guy, but i had a hiatal hernia, and my doc(who is a friend and has a pretty good sense of humor) informed me that giving birth to a baby of any size can cause one. I, of coarse, let him know i had never given birth:)

If you're a woman, the man's unit is either too large or you may have internal lubricating problems.  \nNonetheless, you should visit an OBGYN...

the link below (*warning* *graphic images*) will show you just how long some people can delay getting medical care. \n\nit depends on what type of hernia you have (direct or indirect inguinal, umbilical, femoral, etc.) but there are repair operations for every type in which they repair the abdominal wall.

Hi,\nI suffered from the most common hernia in the male, a right inguinal hernia. I actually went from here in MN to Lonsdale, PA to the North Penn Hernia Inst. I would recommend that you seek them out if you can, also if you have no insurance they are reasonable, but that depends on what type of hernia you have. They also have a website where they will answer you questions and concerns, and at the same time you can read about all the people that have lifelong chronic extreme pain because they had it done at the wrong place, wrong doctor, or wrong technique. Dr. Goodyear is the head doc, and hernias are all he does. There are other centers across the country that also do just hernias. Many times the procedure is a day surgery and you are in and out the same day, but again that depends on the type of hernia you have. Hope this helps.

Sounds great. However, I know a friend of mine eventually had surgery for breast reductuion (shame), because it was troubling her. I think she had back aches, but I am not sure - also don't really know what size she was.

It's actually happened to a lot of women. I heard it was normal because it happened to me. My right is slightly bigger than my left, but you have to look for a long time to notice. I wouldn't worry about it.

Dont feel bad my friend. I am 35 and aunt Flo stays with me on a constant time period. I may stop a day or so then flood over and over. I think I may have fibroids or hardening of the ovaries, but who knows. I dont have children, nor do I plan to. I want a partial historectomy becuase i am sick of this mess. So dont feel bad, all we band of women understand...the gulf is with me also.
