Try to get to a physio asap. A good one will give you exercises to do to help now and to help to avoid the problem in the future.

I had one done years ago, wasn’t big(small bulge 1-2cm) or painful and I had lived with it for years. I mentioned it in passing at the docs when there for something else. I was referred straight away and specialist said they fix it as soon as a non emergency gap appeared. They said it won’t heal itself and there is a risk of circulation being cut off to it, tissue dying, infection, septicemia . So they never leave them. The op was under a general, but quick.

Op. Recovery was quick. If wearing a harness doesn’t hurt etc.. you’ll probably be fine. Just go steady for a few session and see how it feels.
