Taking out 25-30 meshes is enough to be experienced, but of course 250-300 would be much better for dealing with any possible complications during and after procedure (like airplane pilots, the more hours you have the better).

Hard to help here but I’d take mesh out. Also I doubt those hernias that escaped physical examination, CT and US be real. Those hernias seen by laparoscopy only might be false positives IMO.

Then I’d check if I really had a hernia. If so I’d prefer a non-mesh repair. Also many people here have groin hernias and they agree with me for sure that they are painless unless there’s a complication (generally requiring urgent surgery).

Sportsmen sometimes have groin pain related to anatomical structures involved in hernia that must be diagnosed by experienced people and special imaging studies.There’s never any visible hernia anyway IMO.

All this started with testicle pain. Did you have an examination by Urologist? Also I presume pain was severe and long-lasting enough for you to take exploratory laparoscopy. Is this correct? And after surgery you never felt testicle pain again?
