    Hidden Hernia? Can scans be read if emailed?

    Thank you Dr Towfigh for your reply. I live way up north in Marqutte Michigan ( Lake Superior). We have a pretty big hospital here. Marquette General now Duke Lifepoint. I would love to know if we have a hernia specialist in my town. I am attaching a few pictures of my naval and it’s very hard to get a good pic of the small raised area to the left of the naval. It is a little red from ice pack but you may be able to make it out. Like I said I’ve had both ultrasound and CT scan both “normal” but my fear is what you e noted before that if they are not looking specifically they may be missed. Could a pulled or torn muscle cause this tenderness and the naval change? Thank you once again.
