    I had mesh removal about 4 weeks ago laparoscopically robotic assisted. The plan was if there were any hernias to repair them openly after the removal. However, there weren’t any. My direct hernia was filled in by scar tissue I’m guessing. Although there wasn’t a indirect hernia presence either there was some weakness and the surgeon did do a pure tissue repair-as far as I can tell after reading the operative report. He used absorbable sutures. So my plan is to take real slow as I know they lose more and more strength as the area heals. Hope this helps
