Would Undergoing Scoping Cause Abdominal Pain And Discomfort?

Had a 'scoping' done on Dec. 21, 2011 and after a day and until now, I am entertaining abdominal pain and just discomfort, as well as pain in the upper stomach's left side of my body. They found that I have a haital hernia. I am wondering if the 'scoping' is causing this discomfort and pain and will it soon go away?
