    22 Year old Mesh, severe Inguinal pain, severe Periumbilical pain, both areas where mesh is implanted

    1. Re-suturing mesh does not work the same as applying new mesh. In my experience, this just results in another recurrence. This is because the mesh no longer possesses the inflammatory component which reacts with the tissue and promotes INGROWTH of the muscle into the mesh.
    2. Pain many years after a hernia repair is a recurrence until proven otherwise. Almost all mesh-related chronic pain occurs within the first few months.

    In Oregon, contact Dr Sean Orenstein st OHSU. He has a special interest in hernias and can help you.
