As far as I know there is no way to hide a hernia. Your doctor who is doing the physical exam can get your medical records from your other doctors if he/she feels the need to review records your further.
Does anyone on your team(your pit crew, owner of your car,sponsers) know about your hernia?

I'm sorry I don't have a better answer for you.

Yeah the doctor doing the exam should already know that i have had a hernia before, and if not i am sure he will ask when he sees the scare from the previous surgery.

One thing that I did notice, the other day i had an upset stomach all day due to drinking alot the night before and i couldn't even tell I had the hernia at all. There was no visable bulge nor could i feel it at all. That gave me hope that maybe there was a way to hide it for the physical.

My crew knows, and they are frustrated because I am the driver, and the team needs me even though it is a pretty small time thing, not a major class or anything.

Take Care of yourself, if indeed you need to have surgery for the hernia, please research your options. The mesh is causing a great deal of problems for people.
Feel free to pm me I've been through the hernia medical mesh nightmare and I'm still going through a lot. I'd hate to see anyone else suffer.

You can ask about Surgisis it's a bio mesh which is working for many people.

Let me know how you are doing and how the racing is going...
