t stand long enough to do the dishes, or go to the store because of the amount of
walking it takes, and if I do I spend the rest of the day and night in
pain bad enough I can barely move at all. Not only that, but the pain has begun spreading beyond the swelling at the hip. The hernia's on my left side, but the pain has spread down to my groin, and to my left side/back, and towards my right side too (about the same spot as my hernia, just the other side).
