question: I pulled a groin muscle in my right leg while bowling. Had a lot of bruising from my groin to my knee. Also had bruising above the groin where I previously had a hernia repaired. Went to my regular Dr. and he said I may have torn some scar tissue where I had the original repair and that I have a small hernia. He referred me to a general surgeon for evaluation. He also said a small hernia is worse than a large one. what is your opinion.
