A member asked:
Can my inguinal hernia mesh be moved or ripped out of place by me due to movement.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: How long ago was your hernia surgery? Once it has healed for about 6 weeks, mesh would not "move." But, rarely a person can get a recurrent hernia at the site of a prior repair. See a doctor for an exam to see what you may have.
