Hopefully not: Not a typical complication but if the pain occurs always with ejaculation and you have pain at the incision site then you may need to see a urologist or the surgeon who did the surgery for a more formal evaluation. There is nothing you can do on your own if this is the case. The hernia repair may need to be redone.

Find out: There are known complications, and your surgeon can go over those with you. Recurrent hernia, scarring and infection of mesh are all possibles. I hope you are fine, but be checked.
