Possible recurrent hernia?
Redo surgeon again in the open fashion is not recommended. This would result in higher recurrence and higher risk of nerve and spermatic cord damage, due to reoperation in a scarred field.
The imaging with bear down views will help confirm the diagnosis of recurrence.
Adding stitches will not help. A new repair needs to be done. Synthetic mesh works by causing inflammation and having muscle thereby grow into it. The stitches are secondary. So restitching alone does not help
