Im 16 and i play basketball and i found out i was born with mine and started showing during hard weightlifting and running. So anyone whos trying to play basketball or football who has one i highly recommend not to play cause at first it feels fine then it starts to gradually get sore when you walk.

Maybe you should undergoing an ultrasound image , is an easy way to know what’s going on there, ask your doctor . Sorry about my english…

I got a Hernia Question for you people out their that had the operation done. I had Hernia Surgery done right above my belly button 8 years or so ago. I am wondering do you guys still feel the bump even after surgery? I can feel the bump but only difference is I can’t push in back into my stomach anymore. I know its is actually bump and is not the scar tissue. Thanks Please let me know!

I like to jog. I wonder how long it will take me to recover before I could jog again?

Haha, don’t worry, I had my surgery 2-3 years ago and never felt better. Mine was done laparoscopically, not opened (takes longer to heal). The Dr. told me mine was one of the biggest he seen, so really, no matter how bad it is, you should be fine. The worst it will get is on the day of the surgery (after), you’ll be a little drugged up from the morphine and afterwards he will probably just prescribe you vicodin just for pain sake. It took me a week to fully recover.
