Reply To: Inguinal Hernia, fatty tissue something else??

Hi, miner

I’m not sure but I think your symptoms are not caused by inguinal hernia or cord lipoma(fatty lump at spermatic cord which resembles hernia), but by the injury to the external aponeurosis of inguinal area (dense and very thin covering which is the continuation of external oblique muscle).

It is called sports hernia and its gross injury is so subtle that it could not be detected and diagnosed by any examination tool such as ultrasonography, CT or even MRI, but only by an experienced surgeon’s hand.

I recommend you to look for sports hernia specialist around.
