What Causes Pain In Hip And Lower Back After Lymph Node Biopsy In Groin Area?

3 weeks ago I had a lymph node biopsy in my right groin ( 2 lymph nodes were removed and results were negative). I have had pain in my right hip, side, lower back/buttocks since the surgery. The pain feels like the entire area is bruised, but there is no visible sign of bruising. I did not have any bruising at all. The incision area has healed and I have no pain in this area. I told the doctor about my pain 1 1/2 weeks after my surgery and he said this is normal. This pain has not resolved or improved since the surgery. Is this normal?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your symptoms of pain at your groin radiating to your hip lower back and buttock area following surgical removal of groin lymph node I am suggesting that you have developed post operative pain possibly due to adhesion

In view of this please visit the Emergency medicine specialist for further clinical assessment Councelling as well as adequate drug prescription

Moreover please take some analgesic pending your appointment

I hope this helps Regards
