KumaarShah 143 Report post Posted May 3, 2008 It usually affects people who do weight-lifting a lot. It is not serious, but if left un-attended, there may be an emergency when the intestinal tubes get choked. Normally the intestinal tubes go back through the intestinal wall, but sometimes, they get caught and then get choked. This is the emergency I referred to above. The only treatment for this is to place a mesh in the wall so that the intestinal tubes do not come out. As for the chances of getting on the left side, no comments. The doctor may be right, may be wrong. The above information is what was given to me by a doctor. Anyway the doctor is the correct person to guide you, maybe someone on this forum (who is a doctor) can advise you more. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
