I have the pain like hernia exactly where you are showing, but no bumps or bulging. I lift, play tennis and swim regularly. Should I see a specialist?

I have a vein like bulge on my lower right abdomen, goes away when laying down, discomfort more than pain. Pretty bummed if it's a hernia because I'm a gym rat 😔

After my inguinal hernia surgery I have nerve pain when dehydrated

I have had ultra sound done confirming 2 small hernias. I belive it is sports and an inguinal hernia judging by where bulges appear and pain presents itself. Feel lotsa pressure and like a swift kick in the balls throughout the day. Not fun! My bulges are not out all the time but as the day goes on they become more present externally. Any suggestions. I am currently playing a waiting game with health care. Very frustrating.

I have pain in groin no bulge was detected on physical examination by 2 diff general surgeons, ultrasound says small inguinal hernia 1.5 cm but I suspect sports hernia because small inguinsl hernia shoukd not cause pain and I have heard sports hernia could show prptrusion of fat on ultrasound.

I do sports and I have 4 bumps where you said sports hernias would be. My doctor told me to eat but even when I gained weight and a little body fat I could feel it. So I hope I don’t have a hernia lol😂
