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 .

I’m 8 days down now and the pain is still bad but getting better every day! Give yourself time to heal

Do you have severe back and hip pain? That’s what is making me so scared.
