Reply To: Umbilical hernia, what pain is bad?

thank you. It’s much easier through Google indeed! Had tried the search engine here but got lost.

And yeah, a surgeon I saw today said if it opens back up after a no-mesh repair it should only be as big as it was before, unless the part with the stitches in rips and tears as well (violently). So that seems a different opinion than what Dr Towfigh says. Not sure why.

And well I easily get reactions to foreign things that are in prolonged contact with my skin or body (like I got really allergic to my contact lenses after a couple of years, cannot wear a watch… I’m hypersensitive to those things).

thanks for the tips!
