Orthopaedic Surgeon 's  Response
pain in groin area is usually due to hernai or varicocle
however you had hernai in past
mesh repair was done
but mesh can fail and
hernia can reoccur
however varicocle which is dilated testicular pain also can lead to dragging pain in testicles
To rule out any of these conditions we require proper clinical examination and imaging investigation
please visit a general surgeon for examination
Hope I was of some help
