somthing wrong with my abs..sorta

when i do the V exercise ( the seated leg raise ) a large lump in between my abs pops out, it runs from the bottom of my ribs to my belly button, and is about 3cm wide. what is it? is it normal? a little help here.
 
Go to a doctor and have them check you for a potential hernia. I'm not saying you have one, but since a hernia is spiliing of the guts through the abdominal wall, it's possible to happen anywhere in the abs.

Get it checked out.
 
except as I understand it, a hernia is a protrusion through the ab muscles...I would think working the abs would aggrivate a hernia, or at the least make it more visible.

but I've never had a hernia nor seen one.

thats the thing, it isnt out of my ab muscle, its inbetween the two abs in line with the belly button,
Your abs are that whole sheet, it's one big muscle. Go to the doctor.
