Can A Back Surgery Lead To Hernia On The Right Side Of The Stomach?

I had back surgery Feb 12 of this year. I had five compression fractures in the lower lumber area from area one to five. Titanium was used to replace the affected areas. My question is that I now have a hernia on right side of my stomach and possibly one on the left side. Is this a side affect of my back surgery? Thank you in advance for your help.

Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, you have not mentioned what kind of hernia you have without this nothing can be said anything, hernia means displacement of organ from its original place and immerges in nearby structure and it happens with many organs and varies from male to female hope this information helps.
