I had inguinal hernia surgery and now have severe burning pain into my groin and thigh. Is this normal part of recovery?
Inguinal hernia surgery is very painful but burning pain that radiates to the groin and thigh is not part of recovery. I think your surgeon damaged one of the two nerves that run next to the hernia. The treatment for this pain is very difficult and I think you should speak to the surgeon first. Do not jump in for a second surgery to correct the nerve damage, but speak to a malpractice lawyer first. The pain is lifelong and so your damages are high.
