SPORTS HERNIA....? Or just bruised boys...

Last week while riding the road bike for a couple of hours, I felt this strange compressing feeling in my left almond. I thought it may be the new bibs that I was wearing so I just rode it out.

Two days later it still is sensitive and my lower left abdomin hurts when I bend forward. I did some web surfing on the World Wide Web and I think it may be something called Sports Hernia? I am going to the doctor today to have it checked out. Have any of my loyal readers (I know there is at least 4 of you out there) have experienced this affliction? It feels like there is pressure all the time where there should not be. I first experienced it when I was doing hill workouts a month ago and went into it too hard without warming up enough, I rested for a week and it went away.

It does not seem to affect just riding around as I found out last night, but I have this dull aching pressure all of the time there.
