I had a epithiel hernia operation where a 6x3 inch mesh was installed on my left side. this operation was done in jan 2014 and i continue to have pai?

Mesh can irritate: The mesh itself can irritate but it is more likely that the pain is from a nerve which was injured at the time of surgery . See the surgeon who did the original surgery !! He/She is in the BEST position to help you!
