What to Avoid when you have an Indirect Inguinal Hernia

Avoiding things which triggers the hernia is a substantial part of healing that is why it is essential to discipline yourself in including it on your habits. Here are the things that you must avoid if you have or if you had an Indirect Inguinal Hernia:

1. Avoid Spicy Foods

These foods can trigger the protruding of the hernia based on my experience anytime I eat spicy foods especially the very spicy ones after few hours my hernia tends to show and I feel uncomfortable, my theory is this spicy foods make your intestine go softer thus it can easily enter through the small opening of the inguinal canal because it is softer and much easier to pass inside. Even though I am healed already I still avoid this kind of foods so that the hernia will not come back anymore!

2. Avoid Wearing Loose Underwear

This is pretty evident while a person with indirect hernia wears a loose underwear or in other words underwear with defective garters the hernia tends to protrude. Mainly because the intestines are not pushed back by the bottom part of the underwear because it is one important thing if you have an hernia the intestine must be in place and not sag on the skin on top of the testicle by wearing loose underwear the bottom part of the underwear loses its function to hold your bottom part tightly. The conclusion is stay away from wearing those loose underwear of yours I personally experienced it that is why I am sharing it to you.

3. Avoid Over Eating

Eating a lot of foods that you do not need makes your stomach bloated and will make your intestine overload and will have a hard time holding that load which will stress the intestine and protrude to the weak opening of your inguinal canal. Just eat with the right amount to avoid stressing your hernia.

4. Avoid Lifting Heavy Weights

This would strain your muscles on the pelvic area which can push the hernia downwards and pop out eventually. Avoid lifting for the meantime while you are still healing your hernia. There are ways on how to overcome tasks which requires lifting on my eBook check it out

5. Avoid Sneezing and Coughing Hard

Whenever you tend to sneeze or cough try to make it light as you can do not push to hard because it can cause strain on your organs especially your hernia, as you can observe whenever you cough hard the hernia pops out it is because the pressure that sneezing and coughing makes pushes the hernia downwards, in order for you to avoid this you must hold your inguinal part where hernia is poppint before you sneeze or cough and most importantly do sneezing and coughing lightly do not over exaggerate.

6. Avoid Anxiety

This is one important factor you must consider when you want to heal your hernia. Because anxiety can trigger hyper acidity in your stomach where in people who has inguinal hernia is more prone with excessive acids produce by the stomach because the intestines are moving in their right places which trigger more production of acids.

These are simple ways to hold your hernia in place and avoiding it to pop out. These are few things to remember and the most basic one, however you can learn more about the things to avoid if you have inguinal hernia on my eBook you can check it out to learn more about this topic.

Personal Experience with Indirect Inguinal Hernia

Before when I was a child, I was really thin (ectomorph a term use on body building forums and fitness forums for skinny guys) and shy, that is why when I am in college (I think I was 16 years old by that time) I decided to hit the gym and to gain some muscles and added weight in order for me to boost my confidence and to improve my appearance. As far as I can remember I was 16 years old by that time. I went to the gym for almost every other day that was my routine back then I think that was my routine for 2 consecutive years. Lifting heavy weights (every other day), eating heavily and drinking supplements for bodybuilding is my daily routine. I gained a lot of muscles, I added some gains from 90 lbs standing 5'9" after 2 years of lifting I became 130 lbs 5'11" and I still continue to lift heavy weights. I was really strong by that time I can bench up to 160 lbs as I can remember on a flat bench press.

Suddenly after my training session at the gym, when I am about to get home I felt something wrong in me I am having nausea I thought it was only normal because I was really tired at that time for the reason that I ride a bicycle on going to the gym and vice versa. So I took a rest, and I felt okay so the other day it happened again every time after my lifting set it felt strange. So I went home immediately upon urinating I found a small lump that is protruding at the top of my right testicle I was terrified when I first time saw it because it was the first time that I saw something like that happened to me, I thought it was cancerous and I worried and I was stressed about it. When you touch the lump it feels like a soft tissue and if you push it upwards it will be gone and it will come again if you lift something heavy our cough, afterwards my present condition is getting clearer to me. So I researched about it in the internet and found out that the symptoms that showing off through my body is cause of an "Indirect Inguinal Hernia". I was really stress because I know that it will slow down my body building progress. But I still lift weights but I made it lighter than my usual routine and I did not told my parents about my situation because I am afraid that it will cost them a lot of money because of surgery which the doctors in the internet are telling that the only solution for it is surgery!


I still continued my body building routine and I did not let the hernia hinder me to reach my fitness goals. I was not experiencing any pain at all on my inguinal hernia that is why I did not took it seriously. And there was this one time after a 120 lbs inclined bench press I felt something weird after my training I went to the bathroom to take a defecate and I was terrified when I saw that my stool has blood on it. From then on I stop my training for a while and stopped lifting weights until I was healed what I did is thorough research and disciple, in this site and my eBook I will share to you specifically how I battled with hernia and self-healed it naturally. You will learn my diet, techniques, exercises, routines and some tips. Best of luck in battling your indirect inguinal hernia!
