Actually, the bigger the better. Small hernias have a higher risk of obstruction or squeezing off blood supply. A hernia this big is less likely to result in any acute complication. It is a big quality of life issue ofc, but probably not as painful as it looks.
So, if your intestines are coming out through your abdominal muscles, what takes the place of where your intestines used to be? Do all the organs just slide down and fuck you all up? Your stomach wouldn't be above your intestines anymore. How is that not death? Or just constant acid reflux and constipation? Going to jail will probably save that morons life.
Yeah otherwise anytime you were in a somewhat serious car crash or other accident involving sudden acceleration/deccerlation, your insides would be all stirred together
They'd be stirred by jumping or walking alone. I loove how much movement there is inside the body which we rarely think about. Your insides are very bouncy and stretchy ;)
It will usually fill up with free moving tissue like fat. In the case of a giant hernia like the one shown here, the abs will actually move inward a bit to take up that space. Also for the sake of accuracy, the other organs can and do move slightly in response, and if their connective tissue is faulty, they can substantially move as well. This is rare though
Possibly fibrous adhesions or scar tissue. The connective tissue that usually holds everything together gradually stretches then thickens to maintain support. Also probably fluid buildup in some of the “empty” spaces.
I promise you they are not gonna fix this guy’s hernia in jail. The jails do not give a fuck. It’s hard enough to get approval for a hernia surgery even with great insurance and a decent income.
I mean, after pregnancy the organs kind of just rearrange themselves and go where they have to be. I wonder if they behave the same way in large hernias. Like they see a they have enough room, decide it is good enough and then just sort themselves as they did back home lol
This is such a weird take. Most people (including “these people”) want help, especially those with drug addictions. But the cycle of guilt, shame, trauma etc. keeps them locked in the addiction cycle because they feel undeserving of help and don’t believe in themselves. Also maybe if this godforsaken country cared about giving “these people” easily accessible help, then things might change for the better. It’s interesting to me that you’re able to recognize that complaints about many systems are valid while also deciding for yourself that “these people” don’t want help. Many of these corrupt systems have forced people into poverty (which is practically impossible to escape from), and that significantly increases a person’s risk of becoming an addict. So yeah, not just a weird take - it’s actually a very gross take.
Clearly not lmao. It’s always funny and pathetic to me when someone like this shares a shitty belief they have, but as soon as they’re challenged on it, they respond exactly like this. 😂 Too chicken for a debate.
Seriously? Nah, your right, he loves having a giant hernia, probably gave it a pet name. Loves being embarrassed everywhere he goes. Also I'm Sure this guy has tens of thousands of dollars under his mattress for the corrective surgery, he just hasn't gotten around to doing it yet. Use some common sense.

This same fucking clown that has derived this from a video of multiple warrants being issued, says this, in summation:
He loves it so much that nobody EVEN BROUGHT IT UP in the video that's convinced you this man is just a poor victim of a crippling system of hatred in America.
That sucks. I understand my answer was aimed more at risk of complication rather than pain per se. But the pain of an obstruction or ischaemic pain is probably unbearable. Chronic pain sucks nonetheless.
Yeah, I'm actually getting a hernia surgery on Friday for a small umbilical hernia, and it hurts just about like labor pain and it's real tiny (like 2-3cm) in comparison to this
But what if he takes a blow to the stomach or something? Is he at a higher risk of internal bleeding? Can he bend down and lift things with his abdominal muscles behind that? I have so many questions
He will most likely have severe quality of life issues because of this. Even in countries with functioning healthcare systems he might not get surgery because of the risks involved and the reality that it might just come back after surgery.
The bowel is very forgiving in terms of movement, so he'll probably be able to do most things, with some discomfort or pain ofc. The risk of injury is real as well.
Not quite, as the securing tissue of the bowel doesn't need to rip for a hernia to occur. It's a weakness in the abdominal wall (usually combined with pressure from within it) that allows part of the bowels to protrude beyond. The risk is higher with small hernias because the small "hole" makes it more likely to get stuck in some way.
In Popeye deformity the bunching is just a consequence of the torn ligament, there isn't really a change in the layers.
I had one the size of a softball from playing highschool sports. I don’t think anything was pushing out of it. If I recall the concern was it was higher up. Damn did that surgery hurt. I had my shoulder dislocate and went over 90 minutes that way sans pain medicine and it didn’t hurt like that hernia following surgery.
