Abdominal Hernia — A Bulge Can Be an Important Warning Sign
If you notice a new bulge, swelling, or lump in your abdomen or around the navel, especially when coughing, lifting something heavy, standing, or straining, it may be a sign of an abdominal hernia.
An abdominal hernia occurs when tissue or part of the intestine pushes through a weak area in the abdominal wall.
Common signs and symptoms may include:
• A visible or noticeable abdominal bulge
• Bulge becoming more prominent while coughing or standing
• Pain or discomfort during lifting or physical activity
• A feeling of heaviness or pressure in the abdomen
• Tenderness around the affected area
• Gradual increase in the size of the bulge
If you notice a new abdominal bulge, getting it properly assessed can help confirm the diagnosis and determine the most appropriate treatment.
