Lingering problems after possible scar tissue break

Thank you for your response Dr. Goldstein. Yes I did have a laparoscopic repair from a surgeon in Cleveland who had done over 800 procedures like this at that time. The pain does seem to be self limited to the affected area and, for some reason, referred pain in my lower back, which I felt with the hernia before repair. I don’t think I have any real nerve problems because I can ignore the pain due to it not being very significant. I have noticed that when I play golf it initially irritates the area but the next day it feels better than before. It’s like the swinging motion stretches the area and afterwards I get relief. My real question would be at this point is this something I can somewhat ignore and continue my exercise routine as long as the pain doesn’t get worse or would I need to seek treatment? Also, is there any sort of stretch or exercise I can do to help with this? If this is something that is just going to be a mild irritation with no damage being done I can live with that. Again, thank you for your time.
