dear patient , if you feel pain during push ups, so it may be muscular pain .don't worry and stop pull ups for 8- 10 days and give them [ muscles] rest. it will cure automatically. and if pain will same after that so its advisable to consult surgeon and need sonograpgy report for perfect treatment ok
Hi,thanks for query.The pain that you have must be due to some stretching of muscles in an abnomal way.Hernia is a visible swelling at the site of hernia,which increases in size while exercing and decreases in size when you take rest.Hernia can not be heriditary.It can just be a co incidence.Please see that you do the exercise properly.
Wishing you good health.
