June 4, 2015 Golden Valley News Page 3 ......... ....... .... : Some hernias can What is a hernia? The abdominal wall wraps around the center of your body, extending from below the rib cage to the pelvis. This wall keeps intestines and other organs in the abdominal cavity. When tissue pushes through a weak spot in a surrounding muscle or connective tissue, a hernia can occur, There are several types of hernias re- lated to the abdominal area, such as a hiatal hernia thatdevelops near the upper part of the stomach or the um- bilical hernia that develops near the belly button. Types of hernias are generally named for their location. Hernias o/:cur more often in men than women and can occur at any age, even in infants. What is an inguinal hernia? This type of hernia, which occurs in the part of the abdominal wall known as the inguinal canal, is the most commonly occurring type of hernia. It appears as a bulge in the groin or scrotum and is more com- mon in men because the inguinal canal is where a man&apos;s testicles must descend befbre birth. The internal in- guinal ring that is left may not seal properly. If so, a hernia can develop. What are symptoms of a her- nia? The primary symptom is a bulge in the area where the hernia is lo- cated. This bulge may form slowly over a period of weeks or months. Depending on the location, a bulge may not be noticeable until the her- Students rewarded for reading program success Above: Golva kids sport T-shirts they earned for the Golva Accelerated Reading Program.

You might also notice swelling, a feeling of heaviness, tugging or burning. Symptoms are likely to improve when you are not physically active or are lying down. What causes a hernia? Many factors can contribute to fornmtion of a hernia. Inguinal her- nias, fin" instance, may be related to birth weaknesses while another ab- dominal hernia may be caused by factors related to aging. Poor lifestyle practices, such as frequent lifting or being overweight, also contribute to hernia development. What can I do to avoid getting a hernia? Risk factors that you have the power to change include maintaining a healthy weight, learning to lift properly and developing strong ab- dominal muscles with a proper diet and regular exercise. Avoid straining during urination or bowel move- ments. Don't smoke. Chronic cough- ing, generally associated with smoking, is also a strong contributor. Do hernias require a doctor's care? through lifestyle changes If you have pain that is increasing or severe, an obvious lump, or evi- dence of bowel blockage or urinary symptoms, call your primary care doctor fox" an evaluation. If you no- tice any signs of lumps or bulges in your intant or child, make an ap- pointment with your doctor or pedi- atrician Ior evaluation. Sudden pain, nausea, and vomiting are signs of a strangulated hernia. Go to the near- est emergency center because this condition requires immediate sur- gery. What is the treatment? If the hernia is small and you are not having pain, your doctor will rec- ommend lifestyle adjustments you can make. If you are having pain and/or the hernia is advanced, hernia repair surgery is recommended: (Nicolas Hayes, D.O., is a gen- eral smlgeon at Sanfi)rd Health Dick- inson Clinic.) "b ecttor Van access aisles imporIarll for disabled To the editor: For a moment, imagine a quick trip to the store to pick up a few items: milk, eggs and bread. You park your car and hurry inside. Now that you've gotten everything you need, you return to your car. When you reach your car, you see someone has parked so close to your car that it is impossible to open the doo. Now think about someone with a dis- ability reaching their vehicle to find the same sight. Only in this case, someone has parked in the access aisle adjacent to the van accessible parking spot. Because someone has parked in the van access lane this person cannot lower the lift on their Lifting ban on To the editor: Our nation today has an opportu- nity to change the world for the bet- ter, and this change can come from North Dakota. Thanks to the Bakken, our state can move the na- tion toward greater energy security with the potential to once again make the U.S. an energy super- power. Only one obstacle stands in the way: the decades-old ban on export crude oil. However, North Dakota's congressional delegation in Wash- ington has led legislation to lift the ban, and we want to commend Sens. Hoeven and Heitkamp and Con- gressman Cramer for their action on this issue. This exportban is a relic from 1973 when our energy resources seemed limited. Thanks to the inge- nuity and innovation of energy lead- ers, that is no longer the case. Today, thanks to new technology developed right here in North Dakota, our country has an energy surplus even as other nations struggle with an en- DSU announces spring Dean's List DICKINSON - At the end of each regular semester, Dickinson State University recognizes those students named to the Dean's List.

This person is forced to go through the frustrating process of searching for the owner of the illegally parked ve- hicle. Many people don't know they cannot park in the access aisles. These aisles, are often only marked by the diagonal blue lines running through the spot; however, without clear signage, people often think it is another accessible parking spot. Parking in an accessible dime is ille- gal. This is also true for someone who parks in an accessible spot with- out the correct placard. The fine for such an infraction is $100. • Businesses can help prevent this from happening. A simple sign that states there is no parking in the ac- cess aisles is all it takes to deter many people from parking in those aisles. One small sign can make the lives of people with disabilities just a little bit easier. For more information, contact Dakota Center for Independent Liv- ing at (701) 222-3636 and ask for Royce.

This ban, however, for- bids our nation from participating in trade, giving other countries - some- times our enemies - a monopoly over energy supply and demand. This has meant that for far too long, they have been able to manipulate prices and politics. But this doesn't have to be the case. By lifting the export ban on crude oil, we can effectively stabilize the market for crude oil, meaning lower, more stable prices for con- sumers at the pumps. All major stud- ies agree that lifting the ban would decrease prices between four to twelve cents at the pump, translating into billions in energy savings for Americans over the next several years. Lifting the export ban will ensure North Dakota gets a competitive world price for our crude oil which also means the U.S. could further in- crease domestic oil production. This, according to studies, would infuse billions into our economy, bolster exports will lift North Dakota DEADLINES The deadline for submitted copy and sto- ries and all ad orders is noon on Fridays.

Perhaps most important is the role lifting the ban would play in stabi- lizing global relations. As Jack Ger- ard of the American Petroleum Institute put it, we have "at our fin- gertips "a once-in-generation oppor- tunity to show the world how energy abundance can be used as a positive force rather than as a tool to harm or to control nations as some still use their energy abundance." It is time for us to embrace that opportunity and we encourage you to write Congress and urge them to support our Congressional delega- tion in lifting the export ban.
