> (inguinal area) and her doctor does not think it is from adhesions. She
> says the pain is worse on the right but recently there is also pain on
> the left with a pulling sensation and some pain between them. The scar
> (about 6") is just below where the pain goes across the abdomen. The
> first 7 months after the operation she was numb in that area and
> partially numb for another 5 months. My three questions are can
