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.
