Another hernia 4 weeks after repair?
quote :As soon or as late as you wish. Your prior surgery likely has not affected what surgery you may need on the symptomatic side.This is so frustrating to think the Dr. missed the other hernia. He basically had three opportunities to check: once during consultation, once during surgery and once post-op. Each time he is certain there isn’t one there. I’m a bit embarrassed to call the office and make another appt. and have him take a look again. It’s odd cause some days, like today I can feel the pressure and discomfort and other days all is well.
What’s the best way to approach this with him? Don’t mean to criticize his judgment, but there doesn’t seem to be anything other than a hernia to explain this. Is it possible it is residual fluid or inflammation from him poking around down there? Thanks again.
