What Causes Pain And Tenderness In The Groin Area?

I was in newtown, PA this weekend. I awoke to a cluster of what seems to be bites in the left lower glut/upper thigh. I flew back into florida today and I started to get pain in tenderness in my left groin. I am wanting to know how I should or proceed.

Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. I understand your concerns and I will try to help you as much as I can
I dont think that hemorrhoids and bowel movements issues are related to your hernia or hernia surgery. These two organs are separated and there is no manipulation on bowels during surgery.
Hernia surgery for recurrent hernia may be bit more challenging for surgeon but still this is a routine surgery and there should not be problems about it. Also, it would be good to have it done laparoscopically if this is available in your institution since for recurrent hernia, laparosopic surgery is the most optimal option since it is less invasive. Also, you should take into account that hernia may become incarcerated in future so it is better to manage it as soon as possible.
I hope I have answered you query. If you have any further questions you can contact us in every time.
