i had by-lateral hernia surgery 6 weeks ago with surgical mesh installed on my left side. last tuesday i had a sharp pain with swelling on my left lower groin next to my leg for about 2 days that went away leaving some minor swelling that is still in place and has minor discomfort when pressed. 2-3 days ago the same symptoms started in the same area on the right side but hasnt stopped. it feels like something is trying to cut its way out. the pain is mild in the mornings when i wake up (i sleep with my feet elevated) and gets worse as the day goes own as i walk around.
