i had inguinal open surgery with mesh in january 2019. the chronic pain i have is far worse than before surgery. i have dull constant lumpy pain that feels like a lump is dropping into my upper inner thigh from my groin. i also have sharp shooting pains in the groin that feel like something inside is ripping. i also have a hard time sitting up straight and the pain that makes it hard to sit up because the pain radiates from my groin to my lower back. i have been working construction that requires lifting 80 to 180lb objects. i have lost dozens of days of work due to pain. i called my surgeon and spoke to his head nurse and expressed concerns of a failed surgery and she tried to ensure me that it was not possible for the surgery to have failed. she said no matter how much weight i was lifting that it would be impossible for the mesh or surgery to have failed. she also told me that there are three nerves that are cut in an inguinal surgery and it will just take time for them to heal. i dont know what to do at this point because the pain is chronic and debilitating at times. the pain and discomfort is 100 percent of the time. does any of the pain i describe sound familiar to anyone?
