Question:
Could this be ANOTHER

I have had 2 hernia repairs since oct,2004, and I think I have another one :(, but it isnt popping out like the others. The problem is I have this tugging pulling feeling on my right side, My neighbor also had a hernia reapir the day before me he said he feels that all the time, his Doctor gave him relaxers, and told him to slow down, it means your over doing it. Iam just not looking forward to "ANY" more surgery. Just wanted inputs from others. Thank-You Christine    — blainejrjeni (posted on September 6, 2005)

I dont know how old you are, but my plastic surgeon, that repaired my 3 hernias, said people at my age 45 get like swiss cheese in the ab muscles. I had mine repaired last august '04, and I feel a burning tearing feeling again when I cough and strain or sneeze, so it lookes like I have 1 or 2 new ones also, and I did have my muscles tightened too at the same time as the repair. Mine never did feel as though they protruded out,but they were there. Good luck

It could just be the mesh and stitches pulling when you are active. It can be painful.
