    Inguinal hernia mesh removal

    Thank you for sharing. This experience is very isolating. I’m fed up with being in pain and unable to do the things I used to do but I’m afraid removing the mesh will make things worse. I feel trapped. The surgeon who put the mesh in says that its too risky to remove the mesh. She advises that removing the mesh will create a hernia and that the cord or testicle could be damaged. I have read a few cases where the mesh was removed without damage. Its a relief to speak with someone who had the mesh removed without damage.
