Well I have learned something the hard way. Apparently leg presses create more abdominal pressure than squats and dead lifts do. I have had a umbilical hernia for about 7+ years and it never seemed to get any worse doing squats and dead lifts. But two and a half months of doing leg presses and it has doubled in size and I'm going to have to have surgery to repair it.
Has anyone here had a umbilical hernia repaired? I'm most likely going to get it done via laparoscopy with a mesh. However I have read a lot of horror stories about post surgery problems with some of the mesh products so I'm curious about anyone else's experiences with this procedure. Please share any experiences, good or bad. Thanks!
