A member asked:
Inguinal hernia surgery 10 weeks ago now nerve pain down center thigh for past 4 weeks.what is causing & how to fix it.not just mask with gabapentin. ?

Sorry that: you have this rare but frustrating symptom(s) followng hernia repair but further surgery or aggressive treatment is usually not successful in relieving your pain. TIME OFTEN results in gradual diminishing discomfort and the "masking" by Gabapentin in the MEANTIME is an excellent choice! Hope this is helpful Dr Z
