Reply To: Open no mesh inguinal surgery. Is this normal?

That’s a real shame Bob, but it could just be it needs time to settle down. Do you know if it was Shouldice or Desarda repair? It’s usually better to walk as early and as often as you can so persevere I’d suggest. I think most surgeons want patients to walk as soon as possible after operation as it help
Also maybe some imaging could help, has doctor suggested that? If not maybe request it?

Good luck to you and hopefully it’s just time being a great healer.
