Hernias

I had a double, one on each side. As GaryS said, you'll notice the bulge either on the left or right side. Mine was to the point where I could push it in. I had the mesh surgery. You definitely want to get it taken care of. If the intestine gets constricted in the bulge, you only have about 4 hours before you have major problems. (What the doc told me) The surgery is a piece of cake but the following 3 days aren't very pleasant. Good luck.
