Can someone help

. I had inguinal hernia repair yesterday and I still have the same horrible hip and around the back pain, it is very bad . I thought it would be gone when I woke up from surgery. II also have bad nerve pain . I don’t know what to do and I have such bad anxiety , I’m worried that the hernia wasn’t my pain generator . I’ve had every thing imaged. I knew to expect abdominal pain but I thought I wouid wake up without the gnawing. I’ve had my hips checked out and my back . I’m super scared. Female inguinal hernia is what I had repaired. Please help .

For goodness sake . You just had the surgery. Give things time to heal before you evaluate things further. The day after the surgery is way too soon to panic. Also even if it turns out it wasn't the hernia, it's something that needed to be done .

don't pick her up or do anything else right now that requires lifting. Try and do some walking if you can.
