    Persistent Pain in Upper Right Abdomen – Hernia in Abdominal Wall?

    It’s almost certainly not a hernia. I have seen muscle spasms in this exact location mimick a hernia. Pain associated am with a bulge. The bulge turns out, is the muscle balling up in a spasm. Usually massage helps. It’s a good idea to see a surgeon anyway to get a more complete evaluation. I would recommend Dr. Ashtosh Kaul at Westchester County Medical Center in Valhala. Feel free to use my name, and let him know you were referred through Hernia Talk. Hope this helps!
