Pain on lower sides near groin

[starlight710 5]

I am almost 6 months out from RNY surgery. I have a constant achy pain in groin area. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this? I am going to call doctor but was hoping there was someone who could shed some light on this annoying pain.

A hernia?

I agree...my first thought was an inguinal hernia but I also had hernia type pain, I am 13 months out, and it turns out I pulled a muscle after helping move my brother in law for 6 hours. The most lifting and twisting and jumping in and out of the bed of a truck since surgery. I had an MRI to confirm and it was checked by the radiologist and then my bypass surgeon. Did you do any recent lifting or new activities lately? Heat and rest should help. I don't think you can be to careful so I would call your surgeon and see how they want you to proceed. Best of luck to you!
