A member asked:

So i got meralgia from inguinal hernia repair in dec? is that even possible? and i'm in an extreme amount of pain and doctors arnt getting back to me.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: I would first make an appt to see your surgeon. If they won't see you (unlikely), then look for a second opinion. You can find surgeons interested in hernia repair on the website for the americas hernia society. Hope this helps!
