Pain In Groin When Coughing, Is It Due To Hernia Operation?
I hav a pain in my lower right groin when coughing or even when I do sit ups and lifting heavy things. Why is this? And 18 years ago I had an operation for hernia , I think. Could that be the reason, cause the pain is coming from the area where I was operated.
