I believe I have an inguinal hernia, and it's likely I've had it for a few years. I just thought it was fat. This week I got my first cold in some time, and sneezed a lot. I noticed in the shower today the lump was bigger and definitely larger than the left side.

God knows how long it will be before I can get surgery, and I think it would be reckless at this time to continue doing squats, deads, and rows. (Even though I guess I have been since beginning of my training.)

Has anyone here that has had an inguinal hernia done some sort of training while waiting for surgery, or am I going to be limited to walking on the dreadmill and riding a bike until I recover?
