HerniaTalk **LIVE** Q & A sessions
Hi everyone!
I’d like to take this downtime from the Covid19 pandemic to help answer your questions via an interactive live video session.
I know so many do not have access to their doctors at this time and are staying at home. I’m hoping a Q&A session may help ease some of your angst during this trying time.
Please send me your suggestions and also which is the best platform on which to do this:
Zoom, Facebook Live, Instagram Live, etc.Goals:
– easy access for all worldwide
– save-able content
– able to include more than 1 person on video. I’d like to invite my surgeon colleagues to join me in your Q&A
– interactive with the audience.Thanks!

Hi everyone
Let’s plan for this weekend: I will devote an hour Saturday and an hour Sunday. I’ll confirm date/times shortly. It will be on Zoom. -
Likely no major consequences. Depends on what is actually in the hernia. I recommend robotic approach next time. It’s a better repair for most of them.

In 2016 I had surgery to fix a post traumatic flank hernia on my left side.
Open flap surgery was done using a 20×30cm medium wt uncoated pp mesh.
Several months ago,The surgeon said that the mesh tore from my spine. I felt cramping in the area and it was awful. I could feel the lump and believe it’s already grown in size.
The surgeons told me I should get the lumbar hernia fixed ASAP
My question is, what are the consequences if I do not get the defect fixed.
