    Probably a cord lipoma in your inguinal canal.

    I can review your CT imaging if you wanted to send it to me. Many surgeons and radiologists don’t appreciate true cord lipomas as being akin to a hernia on CT.

    Have you ever seen someone diagnosed with a hernia only to go under for surgery and find a lipoma instead? Wondering if that’s unusual after a physical exam.
