Is it hernia if ever I ate a lot then my stomach aches?!
Question:
Is it hernia if ever I ate a lot then my stomach aches?
Recently, I made an exercise for my belly to be flat after a year of ceasarian operation.After I ate my lunch more than I used to, my stomach felt a pain that is unbearable.Then I vomit and still feel the pain until night.On the next day, the pain on my stomach was gone.Then next day, I ate again on dinner more than I used to.Then I felt the pain again but not like the pain I felt before.It's more bearable.Then I notice some changes on my private part.As if it is swollen.Take note that I'm carrying everyday a 12kls.child and getting heavier every each day. Does that means that I have hernia?I am really worried for I am afraid of surgery.Please help.Need your opinions. Anyways, thanks to ms. peacefulwaterwolf for your opinion on my very first question and for giving me an idea about hernia.
Answers:
It sounds more like simple gastritis (stomach pain). In hernia one gets protrusion of the abdomen at incision site. If private parts are swollen, it may not be hernia. Anyway, you should get a check up. I have to say something about this 12 Kg child, find a pram or walker for him/her, it is not proper for you to carry this much all the time. I just think how much hard work you must be doing! All the best!
