Inguinal hernia
Featured Answer
It is difficult to tell what could be going on with what you describe, since it is not very specific, without this and even more important being able to explore you my best recommendation is to go to your surgeon for a check up. It would be useful to know details such as when your surgery was done, which approach and technique was used for the repair, which medications you are taking and many other things that make hard to help you here and would be irresponsible to dictate anything else than going back to your surgeon. Good luck!
I would keep in close contact with your physician. There are many expected symptoms following surgery. These include pain and "tightness" in the surgical area. Swelling and some redness are also common in the immediate post-operative period. However, difficulty breathing is not normal following hernia surgery. Is it possible that you had some difficulty breathing before surgery?
Best of luck!

Depends on the timing of surgery. If it was just recently then the bloating and difficulty with deep breathing could be normal post op gas, inflammation or blood. If it quickly resolved, that was probably it. However, there are other things that are more serious. If getting worse or not getting better see your surgeon.
