Hernia, Or Just Body Structure? Posted: 04-19-07 14:12pm
Well, first of all, I tend to be paranoid
about medical conditions, but when I look
down on my groin region there are two
bumps where it looks like my pelvis and
upper thigh meet. There is one on each
side in the same place, but the one on the
left side is slightly larger. I work out
most every day, I know that puts me at a
higher risk for a hernia. I am worrying
quite a bit, I was wondering if anyone
else has these bumps and whether they are
a differing size. This is nerveracking.

Hernais Hurt! Posted: 04-19-07 14:45pm
For everyone thinking they have hernias:
Hernias are exremely painful; 7 or higher
on the pain scale for most people. It's
kind of like a broken nose or labor: You
know you have one!!
What you are describing sound like swollen
or enlarged lymph nodes.
