Sharp Pinching Pain After Inguinal Hernia Surgery. Some Relief With Ibuprofen. Any Problem In Recovery?
I had inguinal hernia surgery 5 weeks ago. 24 hours ago I started experiencing a sharp pinching pain after I stand up from a bent over position. The first time it struck the pain lasted until I took 4 Ibuprofen at 600 mg each. Once they kicked in the pain went away. Today the pain subsides shortly after I have been standing for a few minutes. Has something gone wrong with my recovery?
