It shouldnt give : Symptoms if it did. Most times surgeons will ligate the round ligament during inguinal surgery repair as it is of no consequence.

Maybe: Hernia repair can irritate the surrounding structures, however it is unlikely your round ligament would cause you problems even if irritated. In any case, if you are having some trouble a year after inguinal hernia repair, call your surgeon for a follow up visit to check it out and make sure things are ok.
