question: I recently had inguinal hernia surgery. Can having inguinal hernia surgery cause pain in the testicles despite this was to repair a tear in the lower abdominal wall.  The pain seem to come right during Sex pre ejaculation.  I will admit I have only had 4 days of recovery.  I also have developed a pain in my side on the same side I had the surgery on.  It is a constant pain but it is not killing me.  I know this pain is not normal to me and seem to appear after the surgery.
