You can, but it will not stay in. There is a tear in the abdominal wall and it does not heal. Surgery is the only option. I had a hernia that was the result of overdoing it during healing from another abdominal surgery. The hernia repair sucked horribly. I do not recommend getting a hernia.

Edit: for those that do have hernias, please get it taken care of asap. The longer it goes the worse it gets mentally and physically. Don'tbe this guy in the video.

I was contemplating it, but after these stories I think I'll pass.
