What Causes Left Sided Abdominal Discomfort While Lying On Back?
When I lay on my back, and suck in my stomach, there is a bulge protruding from my lower left side below my belly button. I had a hysterectomy in 2014 and my ovaries were left but everything else is gone. I went through physical therapy to get back to working out at the gym. I m very active and I have just noticed this bulge. It worries me because it looks like the same type of bulge I saw on my right side before my hysterectomy. The bulge was a huge fibroid. Now that my uterus is removed, what could this bulge be?

-Just an intestinal bulge visible through weak abdominal wall due ti surgery.
-It can be in incisional hernia ..where bulge increases after coughing.
