A member asked:

Hernia mesh problems, or a bigger issue, what to do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need eval: Not enough info to go by here, but if you have had a hernia repaired and think there may be a problem, make an appointment to see your surgeon. If not possible, you could find a surgeon interested in hernia repair at the americas hernia society website. Hope this helps!
