Can scar tissue in the inguinal area cause pain to travel to the lower and upper hip part of the hip. i have had a mri that shows scar tissue, pain is at the hip 24 -7?

See answer: Though scar tissue in the inguinal region from prior surgery (most commonly inguinal hernia repair) can be associated with pain in the groin an/or testicular region, it would be quite unusual to cause any significant pain in the hip area and would search for another cause.

An exam: And knowledge of exact area of your complaint and relation to relative nerves. Consider a visit to a neurologist or physical medicine and rehab doctor.
