Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have an umbilical hernia and a doctor tacked it back during my gallbladder surgery about a year ago. I have recently when leaning forward or bending a certain way, I feel like something is getting stuck and I get this pain until it goes back. I experienced an episode on Saturday and the pain is there but it feels like my stomach is swollen like as if I was pregnant. Is it possible my hernia is stuck some how? It is right below my rib cage on left side.
there is very high chance that the hernia is struck inside. you have to go meet a surgeon and have it examined by him as soon as possible. please do not delay.
