Anyone ever have a Hernia? Fuc*....

Kaneman · 07-04-2010, 01:09 PM

So, in comparing my pelvic region with the pelvic region pictured here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inguinal_hernia (WARNING: This is a picture of a penis) , it appears I have an inguinal hernial. No, I haven't been to the Dr yet.

But my pelvic region is swollen in exactly the same manner as the one on Wikipedia and I can obviously palpate the swollen area. Anyway, does anyone have experience with this, or know how much (ballpark) the surgery for something like that runs?

Fuck. Not really good timing.

So thats what your penis looks like.

Hell i think they can do that with scopes. In and out surgery i would guess.

I actually had my wife compare me to that picture after I shaved, in an effort to self diagnose...she giggled when she saw that picture.

It says its outpatient surgery. Still, that can't be cheap.

Can you reduce it, thats the important question?

Sorry not sure of the cost of the procedure, but i have seen it done and assisted on it as a student so with a case of beer I can give it a shot

No, I can not push it back in, it stays swollen and is hard....

My husband said his(without insurance) was about $6200.

With insurance, he paid $1200.

He's had 3 hernias....so if you need to know more about it, let me know. He's the expert.

Don't ask how much of that goes to the anesthesiologist...

So how long can I make it before I absolutely have to have surgery?

if it is a hernia and ist like you describe I would say sooner as opposed to later esp if it becomes strangulated.
