A member asked:
Could a moderate 5 day cough cause a recurrent hernia 130 days after open inguinal mesh repair? have stinging/stretching pain at hernia site. no bulge
A doctor has provided 1 answer
"Cause," no.: At 130 days it's either a successful fix, or it's not. Pain without bulge is probably related to adhesions more than to hernia recurring.
