<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Doctor, I have been having some problems with my abdomen lately. I feel a bulge in the lower part of my abdomen that gets bigger when I lift something heavy. It also causes me discomfort and some pain at times.  <response>: Based on your symptoms, it sounds like you may have an abdominal hernia. To confirm this, I would recommend a complete physical skin exam performed ML and an X-ray computed tomography Scan ct. Depending on the results, we may need to perform wound care management or other hernia repair. We may also need to conduct a pelvis exam and other diagnostic procedures interview, evaluation, consultation to determine the severity of the hernia. Additionally, I would recommend conducting a lipid panel to check your cholesterol levels.
