I have a bulge in my abdominal and it is hard I went to my doctor and she said its a hernia, i went to see a surgeon and he said he does not think its a hernia, but wants to do a ct scan, I said if its not a hernia what could it be, he said fat, well the last time I knew fat what not a hard ball
HI Thanks for posting your query.  Yes you are right fat will not be hard but a localized collection of fat called as Lipoma can be firm (but not hard) in consistency.  But neither a hernia will be hard in consistency.  I would like to know more about your abdominal Bulge. Like which part of the abdomen it's there ? Is it painful to touch ? Does the bulge increases on coughing?  Kindly revert with details asked.  Also, to know what is the problem It's advisable to get CT Abdomen Pelvis as advised by your surgeon. Any clarifications feel free to ask, Happy to answer. Regards.
