Hey guys, I'm still fairly new to the boards but I spend a lot of time reading past topics and things and I haven't came across to my problem. Anyways I had a inguinal hernia (hernia in the groin area) on my right side. I had it for a year and I got it fixed about 3 months ago. My doctor was good and had done the procedure countless times and I went home a few hours after the surgery, no problems. About after a month of recuperating, I slowly went back into the gym, I could tell I was losing some of my progress but I started to bounce back, only problem was that when I tried abs (I did weighted cable crunch) less than half of what I normally did prior to the surgery (I did train abs with the hernia when I could, it honestly didn't bother me) after 1 rep I had a serious cramp to were my entire body froze up. I checked myself out and to make sure I did re-rupture it again and I don't believe I have. Fast forward to today I tried abs again, I thought maybe I just needed more time to recover my abs, keep in mind it's been 3 months since I had the surgery. Every time I try weighted abs I have cramps in my surgical area and I have to walk off and stretch to make it go away. I can still to abs without weights (L-raises for example) but I'm afraid that I won't be able to to weighted abs anymore. Yeah it may have been stupid to try and do abs so quickly, but I honestly felt that I was ready, doc said I could go back to the gym after a month. Any advice is greatly appreciated, thanks.
