That’s what almost killed my mom. Her “doctor” knew she had a hernia (you could see it!!) and she asked him about it everytime she saw him but he brushed it off. One day she started throwing up and was turning a weird color. She went to the ER and they told her that her intestines were dying that was caught in the hernia. She had to have emergency surgery to fix it and the doctors told her that if she had waited a few more hours to see them she would have died. Doctors ,a lot of the time,just want money from their patients and don’t care if they actually help them or not.
