DOES AN INGUINAL HERNIA AFFECT BARIATRIC PATIENTS ANY DIFFERENT THAN OTHERS

YEARS AGO I HAD A HERNIA REPAIR FOR AN INGUINAL HERNIA ON MY LEFT SIDE . I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM WITH THIS . SINCE MY RNY ON MARCH 19 2009 I HAVE DEVELOPED AN INGUINAL HERNIA ON MY RIGHT SIDE . I'M EXPERIENCING EXTREME PAIN AND A BURNING SENSATION I NEVER HAD WITH THE OTHER HERNIA . MY APPOINTMENT WITH THE SURGEON IS NOT UNTIL JULY 19 2010 .I KNOW I HAVE TO FIGHT THROUGH IT . BECAUSE OUR FOOD IS PROCESSED IN OUR INTESTINES DOES THIS HERNIA CAUSE US MORE PROBLEMS OR IS MAYBE IT'S A WORST TEAR . THANKS FOR LISTENING ...........ROGER COTE
