Title: Sharp Pain just below abdomen
Post by: keithp on September 10, 2009, 08:38:05 PM
Hello
I am 6 weeks post op and have recovered well. No crutches and am walking with a slight limp.
Over the last few days I have noticed an extremely sharp pain below and to the right of my lower abdomen. Just above the pubic area. I don't know if that counts as the groin or not.
The pain occurs sporadically but usually when I am trying to slowly bring my knee toward my chest. Sometimes it happens when I lie down. If I press on it after I get the pain it feels very tender then goes away.

I had hernia surgery close to the location back in March but I'm quite sure its not a hernia as there is no bulge and the clinic that I had it done at has very few failures.

I'm wondering if my limp is putting strain in that area.

Does anyone else experience this pain in this location?

Thanks
