A member asked:
I suffer from pains in my left crutch after hernia repair surgery (2 years ago). i'm about to go through radio frequency.. what are the risks in it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No risk: Most likely your pain is due to nerve entrapment causing pain , trying to free the nerve by breaking scar tissueit out with radio frequency energy , most the time it will work , only risk it may not work.
