I continue to decline where abdominal mesh is – haven’t had a bm in 9 days; used an enema and two balls came out. I know mesh removal is necessary
Not sure if the mesh was placed inside the abdomen. You can find that out from your operative report. Otherwise, the mesh should not affect intestines.
Also, it is not common for mesh to cause true constipation. Pain medication can cause that. A bowel regimen to treat constipation is necessary.What kind of hernia? What brand of mesh? What technique for repair?
