General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hi.
Harsh pain in lower abdomen and difficulty / pain while passing urine is due to urinary tract infection, cystitis meaning inflammation of the urinary bladder being prominent to cause pain in lower abdomen.
This may not be related to the hernia surgery unless it was done by a Laparoscopy route.
I would advise you the following:
Blood- complete blood picture, kidney functions tests, blood sugar fasting and post-lunch,
Urine- routine,microscopy, culture and sensitivity ( before start of antibiotic)
Ultrasonography of abdomen.
Get started with proper treatment, antibiotics, alkalinizer , take plenty of oral fluids.
I find this answer helpful
