i have had my pelvis assesed by many people and although being told it was 'twisted' and subsequently corrected by an osteopath the underlying condition remains.

For me the fact that apart from the pain on sitting in the hamstring attachment area, which from research seems to be a common complain of occult type hernias, tells me this could be a hernia is the fact that in certain positions the left inguinal area goes numb. In my mind surely that means something is pressing on it with enough 'force' that surely is more than misaligned structures.

I have a feeling i will never know for sure until i accept to go under the knife, although if that then reveals nothing structually wrong then that would have been a very bad move!

thanks
