A member asked:
Why does the abdomen feel hard after the repair of diastasis recti with mesh?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tighter: Repair of the diastasis tightens the abdominal wall and would lead to a flatter firmer stomach. Mesh allows for ingrowth of tissue which would give rise to firmer area.
