Hello I am 21 years old and had my apendix out about 2 years ago. A few weeks ago i started to feal mild pain and a small lump right side on my waist line, i already had my apendix out so it cant be that, some people are saying it could be the scare tissue from the sergery inflamed but the lump is about an inch or 2 below the actual scar and is not on the skin its deeper in the tissue, I can feal it if i push on the side but its not to visable just by looking, i have no other symptoms its just mild pain and a lump, bowl movments are normal and no blood or anything. I have had a history of panic attacks and i am very very worried about this I have an apointment for an unltrasound tommarow and I am a wreck about this mostly becuase i have no idea what it is I dont lift anyting heavy or any real exstream phisical activitys so im wondering can hernyas happen without lifting? Can anyone tell me what it could be It would really help alot, of course with all of these kind of things i am very very worried about tumors and cancer PLEASE HELP i dont think ill ba able to sleep tonight unless i get some kind of information from people that know about thiese things. What should i be worried about what shoudl i look for? and what can i feal good about(no symptoms the chances it could be serious etc.) It also hasent grown since i noticed it.
Thank you
PS: im also a smoker for about 4 years now, not heavy unless things like this happen then im a train smoker. My family has no history of cancer or tumors, my grandpa died of lung cancer but that was becuase of smokeing(ironicly i smoke even after knowing that =(), the rest of my family is very healthy and live for a very long time my grandma is 89 smoked for 40 years and still going stong(not promoting smokeing she is just very lucky and i thank god every day for that).
Update: Well i was looking more on the net about hernias, and this happend a few weeks ago but it dident start to really get noticable till i streched to turn on my air conditoner, as soon as i did i felt a sharp pain in that area then it swelled and this startd, It seems to be in the place that most commen hernias happen around the waist area, im hopeing to god this is what it is, if anyone has any info on this or can reinforce my findings I would really apresiate it and put my mind at ease.
Again thank you for your time.
Well im off to bed after reading up more about this I feal a bit more relaxed, i have an ultrasound at 3pm sharp tommarow wish me luck! =).Ill check this post one time befor i head to the doctors to see if i got any feedback that I can bring to the doctors attention.
(sorry for the mispells and c**p i was just very very shakey and worried about this lol)

Hi! Your symptoms sound just like mine, from the beginning to the end, so I am sure this is hernia.
It happened to me when I sneezed very hard that this bulge suddenly appeared. I got real scared because I didn’t know what happened and what that was. It was present for a few next day and I started panicking. I would feel the discomfort all the time only when I would sneezed or moved suddenly.
I am also not a heavy lifter, I do train aerobics but nothing too hard.
I went to see a doc and he confirmed that it was hernia. It is just one of my organs protruded into the stomach lining. He told me just to put it back in with my fingers and I did.
It appears from time to time, at moments when I do something heavy but it is not as annoying.
As far as I know, the only way to fix this is to have a surgery but I am on some sort of holdback I don’t know. It doesn’t cause me that much trouble anymore.
So, calm down, see your doc and let me know what s/he said! Good luck!
