A member asked:
Had femorial hernia 12mo ago having same pain as before repair ct scan shows no recurring hernia will trigger point injection help or is it new hernia?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Femoral hernia: A recurrent femoral hernia will be hard to diagnose. The negative ct scan is reassuring, but not a guarantee. You can try the injection. An ultrasound might also be helpful. Observation and follow up with your doc will be most important.
