I had hernia repair on left side last Christmas season, I am experiencing pain and burning at surgery site and pain in testicles. I have gone to my doctor and they said it was scar tissue. However, I am not feeling well, very tired, and I can't take it much longer. I don't have insurance and I have a high pain tolerance, but what else can I do and do you think it has reocurred as I know they can after you have already had surgery? I need relief! I have taken ibuprofin and tried a percocet tonight with no relief!

I would go to a clinic, they can come back, my friend has just gone in for the third time for a hernia in the same spot, if you feel something is wrong don't back down doctors can be stubborn and are not always right.

Ditto to lovemyfamily! If it was a hernia in a testicle, it might have herniated down your leg (femoral hernia) this time, and the doctor didn't feel it.
One hernia can be tolerated for life while another can strangulate and kill you.
