  2. Ravens news, notes and opinions

    Having signed all their draft picks except first-rounder <strong>Matt Elam</strong>, having shored up their biggest perceived weakness with the signing of linebacker <strong>Daryl Smith </strong>and with very little salary cap room to do much else, it&rsquo;s hard to imagine the Ravens being too active over the next five weeks before the start of training camp. However, something clearly has to be worked out with the status of Pro Bowl fullback <strong>Vonta Leach</strong>. As my colleague <strong>Aaron Wilson </strong>reported last week, the Ravens, who took Leach&rsquo;s potential successor, <strong>Kyle Juszczyk,</strong> in the fourth round of April&rsquo;s draft, are expected to craft a proposal to adjust his contract, which carries a $4.33 million salary cap hit for the coming season. Leach sounds like he is prepared for the situation, telling reporters last week that, &ldquo;When the situation comes, I think we&rsquo;ll take care of it.&rdquo; The Ravens clearly love Leach as a player and as a leader. Without knowing how Juszczyk will handle lead-blocking duties in his rookie season, they believe that Leach, probably the best lead blocker in the game, has an important place on the team. However, they also could use a little more cap flexibility and Leach&rsquo;s contract may be the most realistic place to get it. It sounds like the situation could come to a head shortly. Like <strong>Anquan Boldin</strong>, Leach is a proud guy and I&rsquo;d imagine trying to convince him to take a pay cut is going to be a tough sell for <strong>Ozzie Newsome</strong> and company. But it behooves both sides to work something out.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

  11. Understanding sports hernias

    That chronic groin pain sometimes felt by athletes may be called a sports hernia, but it's not really a hernia at all, according to Dr. Katherine G. Lamond, assistant professor of surgery at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and a surgeon at the University of Maryland Medical Center. She said they are different from what's normally thought of as a hernia and sometimes tough to diagnose. But once doctors determine that this is the cause, there is effective treatment.

  12. Hernias in women can be hard to diagnose

    Hernias are a common ailment among Americans; more than 4 million people develop the painful condition. And although both men and women develop hernias, female patients may be harder to diagnose. Doctors and patients may not realize the abdominal pain a woman is feeling is because of a hernia. Dr. Hien Nguyen, assistant professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, said the pain can be mistaken for other conditions with similar symptoms, such as adhesions from prior surgery, endometriosis, fibroids and ovarian cysts. Nguyen talks about treating hernias in women.
