    possible hernia? Could be that the wound has opened it self back up.

    I sell medical supplies, im not a MD or anything. But i would go get it checked of for sure. Good luck.

    you are quite welcome, The surgery is a simple fix, just a tear in the abdominal wall, couple stitches and your done.

    Dont do any heavy lifting for along time after your surgery, Just work your way up. Good luck with that.

    You need to give more details on how the pain started dear.
    When u lean over, did u fall? if u did where?
    Does it make u easier to breathe when u sit down, or stand up?
    Describe the quality of the pain that u are refering to.
    Do you only have trouble breathing?Or there's other pain that were cause from that fall?
    from 0-10 0 being the least and ten being the worst, tell me how bad the pain is?

    my mom just had a hernia removed from her stomach today...not fun! but it sounds similar to her symptoms except she had a bulge coming out of her stomach. she just had her gull bladder removed about a month ago & they said she cleaned her house too soon after surgery & that's what caused it.

    Ok Are u feeling nauseated?
    Can u locate which part of ur stomach that is the most painful?
    Measure ur pulse for me...if it's more than 60-80 per min....u might have a hernia.

    The most thing I'm afraid is Aneurysm.So make sure u call 911 if u are feeling
    onset of lower back, and abdominal pain
    nausea vommitting
    mottled or spotty stomach skin
    pale,cool, clammy skin in ur legs
    ur pulse in ur tigh are slow or absent
    feel the lump on ur stomach, does it pulsating?

    so i went to the infirmary this morning and they think its either a cracked rib or i broke up some scar tissue from my surgery...both are very possible considering i kickbox 6 days a week...they said to take it easy for a few days...see how it does...no lifting, etc...if its not better by next week to see a doctor...but either way there is not much that they can do for it...just takes time to heal

    If it is still bothering you you really should go get it checked out. My dad is a paramedic in two counties, I asked him about it and he said you should see a dr.
