Not really : I'm sorry this is happening. Groin pain a known possible consequence of this surgery. Most surgeons will not operate on just pain -too much risk (and can make it worse) . A neuroma is often the cause, or a nerve impinged by a suture inside. Most imaging will not help define anything. Hope it gets better.
