Anyone have recommendations for Surgeon in BR to evaluate a potential hernia?

Light front squat barbell work last Friday and my sacrum decided to adjust mid-set at the bottom and I felt some weirdness all around the genitals.

Walked around for a min, and had no issues so I cleaned the weight and finished the workout.

It’s been a week and I have had off and on discomfort in the groin area, but no obvious visible hernia.

If I go into a squat, I have pressure/discomfort from right about parallel to just below parallel, but it’s mostly gone when I’m in a full squat.

Looking for some recommendations to confirm what is actually going on.

TIA

Thanks.

I will schedule a visit with Jakob next week.

Aetna was dropped by the BR General facilities so Rhynes isn’t an option.

You most definitely want Dr Karl Leblanc. He actually specializes in hernia repairs. This is from his bio on the website.
quote:

Dr. LeBlanc specializes in hernia and abdominal wall reconstruction surgery. He also has special interest in surgery for gastroesophageal reflux and foregut disease. He is an invited speaker for numerous national and international conferences. One of his premier achievements was the development and the performance of the world's first laparoscopic incisional hernia repair.

It ended up being groin strains at both insertion points at the pelvis.

No hernia.
