    Thank you! The bulge is visible when standing, however, the US dr said he did not see anything abnormal- no tears, holes, blockage, etc. Every dr/specialist I’ve seen has been able to to see the bulge along my muscle, but when felt or imaged, say they do not find anything consistent with an actual hernia.

    I am in Denver and am trying to find the right specialist, but am struggling to know who that is at this point…

    Thanks for the suggestion on the dynamic ultrasound. I did have one done recently and the ultrasound dr. and tech were unable to find anything. The dr. said he was “baffled” as there is clearly a bulge that is causing discomfort. He did not see any hernia or muscle tear. He did think the muscle did not look as smooth/thick as the muscle on my other side. I’m at a loss as to what to do next. I have a follow up with my GP and scheduled a consult with a sports PT. All the symptoms fit the description of a hernia… any other ideas what this could be if not a hernia? Thanks!!!
