IS IT POSSIBLE TO HAVE A HERNIA WITH KP

Post by teena1 »

The reason I ask is because of the pain I have been experiencing the last few months in the groin area of my right side where the kp is located. It shifts from around the stoma to the top of my leg. I had an appointment with a colo-rectal surgeon who is checking into this for me; but would like to know if anyone has ever experienced this.

I haven't experienced what you are going through but I did have a hernia with my kock pouch for a while and it wasnt until it started bothering me that I had it fixed. I would get it checked out though like you are doing.

If you have abdominal muscles, it's possible to have a hernia.
