Is it normal to have a sharp pain in the groin area after hernia surgery?

Patient's question:

There is still a stinging pain in the upper thigh, especially when standing up after sitting for a long time, the pain is more severe. Is it normal to have a stinging pain in the upper thigh after a hernia surgery?

Doctor's answer:

First, the pain you described should not occur again, as it has been one month after the surgery. In the early stages, the lack of scarring on the wound might cause reflexive pain in the inner thigh, but once the wound has healed, such occurrences should not happen again. Here, apart from the stabbing pain, I don't know how to address it without accompanying other symptoms. It is recommended to consult your primary doctor, preferably the one who performed the surgery, or review the surgical record to understand the situation better.
During the treatment for male-related conditions, in addition to symptomatic treatment, the patient's dietary habits and mental state are also particularly important. The patient must maintain a light diet and always keep a cheerful and optimistic mindset to avoid unnecessary impacts on the complete recovery from the condition.
