[QUOTE="scratch, post: 2758603, member: 1674"] Mine were probably caused by using wrong body mechanics, for example having my waist twisted and pulling instead of pushing. My first one I got at a pickup at a chemical plant, I would pick up a pallet or two of 50-70 pound boxes. Trying to work at a brisk pace doesn't help at all. I weighed about 160 pounds at the time, so its not necessarily from being fat. You can get hernias all over your body, they are tears in your muscles. Men get them more than women in the groin area due to a weak spot in the abdominal cavity where your male plumbing passes through. They are often hereditary too. [/QUOTE]
