Suggest Medication For Pain On Right Abdominal Area Post Inguinal Hernia Repair

I had a double inguinal hernia repair with mesh in 2012. I have had ongoing pain on the right side ever sense. In Jan 2014 I had a CTScan done of the Abdomen and Pelvic area. The person reading the results, commented and said I have Bilateral fat containing hernias on the right side. What should be done if anything. The pain especially gets bad if I m on my feet more than a couple hours. I am 63 years of age. I m sorry I didn t see where there was a charge before asking the question. I have no monies or card at this time.

HI.
The CT scan report is obvious that you have a recurrence of a hernia at the said site and only answer is to get re-exploration repair of the incisional Hernia. At the same time the operating surgeon to look for any entrapment of any nerve in the same area of pain.
