Is there an exercise to correct or reduce femoral hernia?


no surgery just exercise
----------

nope, sorry. a hernia happens because the muscles and tissue in that region have already failed and split apart allowing other femoral structures to bulge thru, like the femoral artery. It can be painful, and it can be dangerous, but the only correction for the situation is surgery. In fact exercises to that area can be dangerous because whatever does bulge thru, like an artery or a loop of bowel can then become constricted and all sorts of problems then occur.  (+ info)

what is a femoral hernia and where is it located?


Dr said I got it (I have had over 5 years of severe pain in lower abdomen and right thigh and top of right leg area but specialist saidd I do not still have the same problem..very sore at touching that area
----------

This is probably the same as an inguinal hernia, as the femoral canal passes beneath the inguinal ligament. Both have to do with the crease between the bottom of the pelvis and the top of the leg. The canal allows the femoral nerve, femoral vein and femoral artery to pass between the pelvis and leg. When a loop of bowel inserts itself into this space -- or the space is large enough that this could happen -- it's called a hernia.  (+ info)
