ok well i just got back from the doctor from my first physical and i have the beginnings of a hernia, he said that if it persists to come back in two to three weeks but didnt say much past that so anything i should avoid?
-
Hernia
-
Heavy weightlifting comes to mind, but where is the hernia exactly?
-
um somewhere near the left testicle i think
-
That sounds like a scrotal hernia. I think lifting heavy weights (for any reason) is the most important thing to avoid.
-
ok so since its in \*that\* area what about masturbating?
-
I shouldn't think it would be a problem.
-
so what can i expect to happen now?
-
You hope, nothing.Let you dioctor compare the situation when you go back, and judge whether it's getting better or worse.
-
okadays thank you
-
OK went to the doctor yesterday, turns out i might not have a hernia at all, he said it couldve been a swollen gland or epididymis? something like that but there is still the possibility of a hernia so i will try and be more cautious of my lifting habits
