Is Lower Abdominal Swelling A Hernia Or Ruptured Muscles?
We need to have a first hand information of a doctor who observed it, what is his opinion even though not a 'hernia'.
As muscle tear or rupture do occur during strenuous exercise. This happen in many muscles of body ,like biceps of upper arm & sometimes even tendons also give way. Once torn or ruptured muscle never gains 100% strength (as was present previously). Even after best treatment strength gain is 80-90% depending upon the site & use & functions of muscles. In those who do less strenuous work/sedentary work this strength is sufficient for routine work.
So this need regular attention. Very strenuous exercise involving this particular muscle be avoided or taken care of. The routine life & work should not of much problem.

Good to hear from you again.
I don`t think it is related to some cancer or heart problem. But still in doubt you can get the FNAC done to rule out cancer, ECG & echo to rule out heart disease. I don`t feel you need it.
Rupture & tear of tendon & muscles following strenuous exercise are common, and we see commonly in our practice. Viral Myopathy is another condition, but that effects multiple muscles, very rarely single muscle.
Hope this answers your query.
Wish you speedy recovery.
