Reply To: Recurrent hernia?

[Damien10]

Hi Doc

I don’t have any groin pain.

I am just trying to see if this can be a recurrence.

The area feels weird but I don’t experience any pain whatsoever.

If I get any discomfort then I get it when I bed down and then it’s barely noticeable.

I’m just trying to see if maybe the area was stretched resulting in tissue coming apart etc.

I don’t see or feel any bulges either and pushing down on the area doesn’t result in pain.

Something is definetly different though. When the symptoms started I felt what felt like a burning sensation in my stomach and it was difficult to fully stretch the area. Leaning back was problematic etc.

Now those symptoms have largely disappeared.

If it is a recurrence, would additional mesh be placed etc and the old one removed?

Regards
