Hernia Pain Management Specialist in Tampa, FL

What is Post-Herniorraphy Syndrome?

Patients that have an inguinal hernia (where soft tissue bulges through a weak part of your abdominal wall) have surgery to alleviate the pain. The pain goes away for most people, but for 5-7% of patients, prolonged post-operative pain may last for months or even years after surgery. Don’t assume you just have to live with the pain!
