Bruise On Lower Abdomen, Pain, Constipation. Hernia?
I found a bruise about the size of two nickels side by side on my lower abdomen in the pelvis region slightly to the right. It is not on a bone. I did not have an injury. In fact, I do not tend to bruise. I was having pain in that area that felt like constipation throughout the night. It does not hurt when I am standing. It only hurts when I "plop" down to sit or when I am laying down and press on it. Could this be a hernia? Should I see a doctor?

Hi, it appears to be the lymph gland, due to some infection around that area, inside or out side. If it is hernia it tend to decrease when you lie on the back. and tend to increase when you stress .
It is always better to have the advise of your doctor, to decide what it is , and plan the treatment. Thank you.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It is not Hernia for sure, need to to worry, it is kind of vague feeling you must be having, which is not harmful to you, in such situation best way is just wait and watch for few days and have close watch on it if any thing unusual start happening then it is to be examined medically, as it is not painful too much so no need to take any pain killer, it may be nonspecific type of lesion will go away soon, have nice day
