  • I had a hernia surgery in my lower stomach using mesh a few years ago. It was from coughing. Lately it's been hurting badly when I sit up or cough, I need to get it checked out. I hope that i haven't severely damaged the muscle tissue now because I'd hate for this to be a reoccurring thing throughout my life, or to not be able to do things I wanna do.

  • Even in case of mesh repair, a recurrence can occour. In groin hernias the diagnosis will be detected with clinical inspection only. In case of a ventral hernia recurrence, a CT scan of the abdomen can help for a right diagnosis.

  • Is this done with general or local anesthetic.

  • You can do that in both ways

  • i din't need a net and my was on da verge on stranged hernia

  • Putting or not a mesh is an option of the surgical technique adopted

  • I heard a nokia ringtone

  • you have an english version? i want to know the progrip mesh.. thank you,

  • @GallowayJesse I think there was an inguinal nerve lesion. It's one of the most common complications.The bad thing about this is that sometimes another second intervention is needed in order to resolve the pain source.

  • ummm hell nahh i wouldnt let these doctors operate on me shyyytt phones in the backround nd gettin that stuff dirty b4 putting it in me omg NO! :O

  • Ive had an undescended testicle surgery, along with two of the hernia repair ones. Definitely not fun, couldnt walk upright for a week lol

  • is it possible to have mesh sticking out of your bellybutton ? I pulled a stich out last week with a bit of oozing, but there is a white strand left and when pulled with tweezers feels like it goes deep . it has been seven weeks since surgry

  • @m22frogger Apparently.

  • Did a fucking phone go off in around 1:02? xD
