    Is this a Hernia? In desperate need of help!

    Hello Dr. Earle and Towfigh,

    Thank you both for all of your help. The insight you have provided has been invaluable. We got a referral to go and see Dr. Talar Tejirian on Friday Aug 21st! I will be back with an update once we meet with her. We are keeping our fingers crossed that it is only a lipoma. One last question I do have is why my wife is suffering the occasional abdomen tightness/pain/pressure. Whenever her lower back bothers her more than normal (typically after standing or sitting for an extended period of time) the abdomen pain/pressure tends to manifest as well. Is it simply referred pain?

    Thank you again,
