Brad – While I agree with Dr. Goldstein’s points, something is definitely wrong here. You are not following the anticipated, or typical course after an inguinal hernia repair. Having said that, conservative, non-operative treatment is likely the most appropriate thing to do. Reiterating at 3 weeks would be very difficult, and possibly dangerous. Given all that, you are more likely than not to resolve your pain without further operation. May need to give it 6-12 weeks. Do you know what type repair you had? Open vs lap. Mesh vs no mesh. What type of mesh?
Hope this helps!
