Experiencing occasional side pains 3 weeks after umbilical hernia repair, should I be worried?

Question

the pain is like at one point the other side then after some time pain shifts to the other side

Babak Moeinolmolki, MD, FACS · Answer

Hello,
Since pain is usually the body's language to tell us something is "wrong," if can feel quite disconcerting. In the case of post-surgical pain, occasional discomfort is to be expected.
If the pain is so severe that it interferes with normal activities, is worsening, or is associated with fever and discharge near the wound, you should be examined by a physician. For most patients, the spontaneous aches and pains after surgery resolve within 6-8 weeks.
