Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. Any surgery can result in severed nerve endings which can lead to pain and tingling/numbness in the innervated area. The sling surgery also can cause the pain until healing is complete. Moreover, the fact that you are still obese can also be causing dragging pain in the groin, considering the fact that you have had hernia repairs. I would ask you to see a doctor for further management. Wish you good health.
