Had inguinal hernia mesh removal hernia was left, now pain while doing pushups and situps for pt test, should i avoid these for rest of my career?

See your surgeon: You may have symptoms from the recurrent or residual remaining hernia, or the pain you had previously was not resolved with mesh removal surgery. May need another surgery. May need anesthesia pain management injections if the hernia has not recurred. Needs a new physical exam with your surgeon.

Wrong question: If you are having pain you should not be doing exercises, you should be seeing your doctor.
