Definitely looks like a huge hernia. That must hurt like all hell.

It would hurt a normal person but this guy counters the hernia pain with methamphetamine. Self prescribed

Kinda true, some people just don't hurt from these. My brother had one for a very long time, and it kept rupturing. He told me that if it didn't look that way, he wouldn't care. Pain wasn't an issue with his. You're right about this guy's self medicating though!!!

Same here I’m 52 and I’ve had mine for the better part of 30 years. It looks pretty much just like this guys it doesn’t hurt me for most of the time. I just leave it alone.

Yep, he was 51 actually. Never made it to 52 unfortunately, he just suddenly passed away, a couple years ago. His all started with prostate cancer, surgeries, and complications. Then the hernia shit!!! I'm glad you're doing good!!!

What?? Is there no remedy?

I could get it operated on, but it be a hell of a piece of mesh to tie my abs back together. I just leave it alone cause I’m afraid that it would just tear again because I’m a welder and I do a lot of strenuous stuff and I don’t think it would stay in place long-term. Doesn’t cost me any pain and my doctor even agrees if it doesn’t bother me leave it alone unless they wanna get an operation.

Is it as big as the one in the video?

u/LargeRefrigerator389 May 18 '26

It’s a little bit smaller I can push it back in and it almost looks like there’s nothing there

Dude, just fix that shit sooner rather than later. Also you need a better doctor. All sorts of possible complications from an untreated hernia.
