Femoral hernia anatomy

[@renatareynoldsxianxian]

I will cry. This was amazing. Thank you.

[@crucified4me]

Thank you! Just had femoral hernia repair surgery yesterday and this has been the best video I’ve seen on the anatomy of a femoral hernia. The surgeon was not sure what it was. I thought it was an inguinal hernia, he thought it was a cyst or mass but was ready for hernia repair surgery if he would find a hernia. Ultrasound also did not show a hernia. But when I woke up I found out it was a femoral hernia after all. I had never heard of these! Now I’m learning… Again, thanks for the awesome video!

[@TheRyukDG]

Hey, if you don't mind what were the symptoms you were experiencing?

[@crucified4me]

@@TheRyukDG I had a small lump in my right groin area since June 2016. It happened after a long flight, using the restroom and straining too much (feeling constipated). When I was seen by my surgeon (on 3 different occasions), he checked me mainly for an inguinal hernia and of course he could not find it. He thought the lump I had was a small mass/cyst... Recently, after 6 years of intense physical activity (big hikes, running, jumping while oblivious to what I had), I went back to the surgeon because the thing was protruding a little and on occasion I felt a little bit of pain, not much, though. The surgeon suggested a small incision to find out what it was (ultrasound was not conclusive). Right before the surgery we agreed that if it was a hernia he would repair it right there and then. When I woke up I learned it was a femoral hernia. The procedure is quite invasive (at least for open surgery, which is what I had). Reading the surgeon's report I found out that the hernia was incarcerated and had a fairly dilated ring. Something that both the surgeon and myself never suspected before. I'm home, recovering now. The surgery took place one week and a day ago. Planning on posting a video of my experience soon since watching other people's videos on this has been helpful. I hope this helps.

[@crucified4me]

@@davidjavids2431 It was more painful to go through the first few days of recovery 😬 And now I've tested positive for COVID, been dealing with cough (not good while recovering from open surgery), and an extremely sore throat 🫤 Thanks God this happened one month after surgery, but it still hurts when I cough 🤯

[@Note-dy6yd]

Hi, how are you doing now? I hope everything is well now.

[@crucified4me]

@@Note-dy6yd I'm healing pretty well from surgery but unfortunately I was somehow exposed to COVID and I'm positive. I'm guessing my immune system was pretty weak because I deal with tons of people on a weekly basis and never got COVID before. Coughing a lot for a few days was hard on the incision area, but now the cough is subsiding, thanks God! Pain in my throat is also pretty bad, but I think the medication is kicking in. All things considered, I'm doing well... Just hope to be fully recovered in a few weeks. I recorded 2 videos on my KZbin channel about my progress, one for the first 14 days of recovery and the second one after one month (right before I tested positive for COVID). Thanks for your kind comment 🤗

[@marklennox2151]

I have had this lump in that exact area for a while and after months of no answers I think I should see a hernia specialist. Thanks for the video.

[@philliphall5198]

Me too and doctor said it’s a hernia But I don’t think it’s as simple surgery as he said Seems more risky to me of father trouble later on

[@okpegboropommy2480]

​@@philliphall5198did you make progress.?

[@karlint39]

Awesome video. Explains a lot. You hinted at the femoral hernia putting pressure on the femoral vein (@7:30 or so...). Would that ever be the cause of edema in the leg with the hernia (or perhaps even the OTHER leg?) Fantastic video. Surgeons should require patients to see this video before coming in to discuss their hernias and possible surgeries.

[@mssavedin92]

my question too!!My Dads legs and feet both swollen, in hospital all day yesterday..the hernia was the culprit. Constipated, major pain...hard abdomen...the whole thing. I didnt even know he had a hernia all these years.They gave morphine, pushed it back in and we went home. Now, part two comes up...surgery I hope.

[@karlint39]

@@mssavedin92 Wow! After having my surgery, I haven't had swelling in my legs. The doctor didn't seem to think it was related, but if it never comes back, I suppose I don't care. So far so good. But again, the surgeon doesn't think the edema in my legs, hands, arms and the hernia were related.

[@mssavedin92]

[@rebeccajohnson7957]

Thank you so much this is the best video I've seen on this issue 👏👏👏 my hernia is causing my nerves to jump around in my body and makes it very hard for me to breathe and sometimes I can actually feel my intestines twitching around and jumping it's horrifying I've not ever felt anything like this EVER and they don't want to do surgery on me because I probably won't make it through the surgery 😢💔 what can I do for relief 😮‍💨 please somebody help me 😢 💔 I've just recently changed my doctors, specialists, hospital and everything because I feel like they see me as terminal and have given up on me or even caring if I live they just kept sending me home when I told them I feel like if I go home I'm going to die they sent me home anyways 😢 💔 I don't know what else to do where to go or who to turn to I can't even get up and walk around hardly because this starts tightening up and making it where I cannot breathe 😢 💔 so I feel like I'm literally laying on my couch dying 😡 😢 💔 PLEASE HELP ME IN JESUS CHRIST MIGHTY HOLY NAME HELP ME AMEN AND AMEN 🙏🙌🙌🙏🙏🙌🙏🙏🙌 🙌🙏

You are 50 & feel like you are going to die from a hernia?? Why won't your Drs do hernia surgery on you?? U are YOUNG!! WHY ARE YOUR DRS NOT HELPING YOU?? REMEMBER --DRS WORK FOR THEIR PATIENTS!!! THEY GET PAID BY THEIR PATIENTS!!! FIRE YOUR DAMN DRS AND SEE NEW DRS ASAP!!! I, too have a femoral or Inguinal hernia which was NOT diagnosed for 5 yrs bc there was no lump! This is called an INTERNAL HERNIA (WHEN U CANT SEE IT ON THE OUTSIDE)...BUT ITS A HERNIA, NEVERTHELESS!! So.. WHY are your Drs NIT HELPING YOU AND WHY HAVE U NOT FIRED THEM AND STARTED WITH NEW DRS??? Btw..I have a video here on KZbin about my hernia and how long it took for a Dr to even diagnose me with it!! You can look up the video under my name..I created the video 2 yrs ago and it's under my name...I can send u or post the link...just don't give up!!!

[@motivate4change]

And BTW...a femoral or Inguinal hernia doesn't make it hard to breathe...your inability to breathe easily sounds like it's being caused by terrible anxiety... anxiety that has been caused by your Drs NOT LISTENING TO U AND NOT CARING ABOUT YOUR HEALTH AND WELL BEING!!!!...PLZ LET ME KNOW IF YOUR NEW DRS TREAT U IN THE RESPECTFUL WAY YOU AND EVERY PATIENT IN PAIN SHOULD BE TREATED!!!!

[@motso1668]

I was just diagnosed with this, the pain is horrible - the bulge is actually affecting my leg and back. The bulge gets worse and more painful during my period - which is why it took almost 8 months to diagnose.

[@keepingitreal618]

I am experiencing burning pain down my thigh and in my groin, horrible pain it fits femoral hernia although they think it may be inguinal. Had scan yesterday so painful, may now have to have CT scan

[@ch1w0m]

Did the pain increase slowly day by day? I just saw yesterday a bulge in my pelvis and I think it’s exactly this and there’s slight pain and discomfort and i’m scared what’s gonna happen

[@keepingitreal618]

@@ch1w0m yes mine did. I’ve seen a surgeon recently who does not think it’s a hernia. He said a large amount of scans are incorrect I was already aware of that. My pain seems to have improved now. If you have anxiety everything seems worse.

[@unclebuck5592]

This is a very informative video. Two years ago I slipped on the ice as I was getting out of the company pickup in the company parking lot and went down between the door and the pickup and hit my head on the ice and when I regained my senses my left leg was pointing in one direction and my body in another direction. I went to Dr. and had ultrasound examination and found out I had a 2 1/2 " horizontal Inguinal hernia in my core area. When surgery was done, they said the membrane was torn, muscle and nerve damage, leaving me with a 6" incision. When I had the ultrasound prior to surgery, I had mentioned about the sore area in my inner left thigh at my crotch. After surgery I was still in pain. Went back to Dr. and had another ultrasound examination on my left inner thigh and found out that there is a 2" hernia at my femoral nerve. Only able to ride in a vehicle for fifteen minutes, hardly able to walk up or down stairs, not able to lift my left leg to take a proper step and if I do I will fall down. So hard to roll over in bed. I'm still waiting for surgery for the femoral hernia damage, which the surgeon told me would be exploratory surgery. The femoral hernia is exactly where you have shown but is on the left side. I do get relief when I stand up by pushing on the hernia with my hand. There hasn't even been a date set for surgery. This injury happened 2 years ago. Any tips on how I can get some results to have much needed surgery done?

Did you have a bulge on your left side?

[@gracev9619]

I hope you are feeling better! I’m 4 months post op femoral hernia repair. Location of repair felt pretty good within a week. But I had a lot of discomfort from belly button down to where the hernia was. Dr said I had a lot of scar tissue from previous abdominal surgery. The pain got better, but never went away. I started developing a bulge there recently. I was dx today with an inguinal hernia, by ultrasound. I see my surgeon next week. I really do not want to do this again!

What is the best and first test you should get to diagnose a hernia?

[@GIBKEL]

Will a femoral hernia refer pain back through pelvis and si where the nerves pass? I’ve had a terrible time with pelvis pain and it’s so far undiscovered after a gastric exam, ER visit and shot to L4, L5, S1 and an epidermal to rt side of T10-L1. All rt. Side pain especially into groin and pelvis. Sitting is worse as is flexing abdomen. I’m at my wits end.

This is putting the fear of god into me 😮! I noticed a lump a while back where I have a tummy scar ,left side! My tummy is swollen and hard,then recently I noticed an oval lump slightly lower down in the groin area (left side)so thought it was an inguinal hernia.GP has referred me for an ultrasound. My left hip is definitely uncomfortable,my tummy aches,the area where the lumps are ache ☹️! Am I safe waiting for this ultrasound? I’m going to the loo ok,breathing ok!

[@brucedanton3669]

Thank you for this of course. I have had a hernia like that myself and it is not nice at all alas. It seemed to come on, though not too sure, with having the medicine Sertraline, as a side effect of it. That is for depression, but with a hernia you are surly going to feel depressed too I wonder?! Well done though too.

[@niklin8397]

I think i have this. It feels like someone is pinching my blood vessel there. I have already had a clot in this vein, so it makes my leg ache like i have a blood clot. Vein doc today said he thinks it is a hernia. Wants to do some scans and make me wait till april 30 to look at the scans. Sitting and any pressure sends me. It hurts so bad. I doubt i will be able to wait.

If a surgeon can feel a hernia in that location, but you have pain when lifting, caughing, sneezing,laying on your right in bed, or bending over at the waist to pick something up from the floor, still be a hernia?

[@eion-stephenson]

I have a fh on the right. I think I caught it early. I have used K2 tape to improve resistance to the bulge and I have a $20 hernia support that I wear 24/7. When I discovered it, my lower abb muscles were gone completely. Only thin fasure and thin muscle were there. I have rebuilt all the muscle by lying in bed, placing my fingers in the region I want to build muscle, and then do very slow abdominal crunches. They are very gentle crunches. My shoulders come off the bed about 20 mm Max. It has been working. I am learning to fix this. It's a slow process. Diet rich in protein. I will make a video on what I do if there is interest. I can see there is a way to improve and perhapse manage this without surgery.
