Discomfort from normal tissue healing after inguinal hernia surgery will have largely subsided at 3 months. Continued discomfort is referred to as postherniorrhaphy pain syndromes, which have diverse origins with peripheral neuropathic and nonneuropathic sources [1, 2]. In addition to the peripheral surgical trauma, pain perception is based on central nervous modulation of pain transmission. This may be influenced by age [3, 4] and other biological pain modulators [5, 6]. Expression of pain and discomfort may further be influenced by socioeconomic factors [7]. Finally, verbal eloquence and the ability to interpret assessment scales may influence final answers on self-assessment (SA) instruments. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
