Hernias are holes in the abdominal wall caused by too much exertion. The pain comes when a portion of your intestine exits this hole. If it is your back that is hurting you shouldn't have a hernia, pulled muscle most likely. See a doctor and they should give you pain medication along with mild muscle relaxers (non-narcotic).

 

1st of all...Chiro's don't massage people. Chiro's adjust your subluxations. Unless they are certified or licensed massage therapist as well as a Chiropractor...but most do one or the other.

2nd of all....NO ONE will be massage your crotch any further than the crease where ur leg and ur groin area meet..YOU can massage the rest.

3rd...do what i say. Heat and relaxation and massage if you can get an appt. I've had back problems for the last 12 years and have been to chiro's, regular dr.s and massage therapist...and im a massage therapist myself...im telling you what should work based on my experience and my education.

 

hmmmm......HAN members starting to freak me out :nervous:

 

:doh:.

 

that isnt the only kind of hernia..its just the most common. you can have a hernia anywhere. a herniated disk is a possibility..but i doubt thats what it is in this case. like you said, he probably just "pulled" a muscle.

Mindy would massage my crotch
