quote Good intentions:

Can you give more detail? There are many many different types of mesh, and procedures, and types of hernia. It is very common for the scrotum to be swollen and discolored after hernia repair.

Inguinal hernia. I don’t know the type of mesh they used. They procedure was placing a mesh around the hernia, using laparoscopy.

quote Feuermann:

Two weeks is pretty early. It is not unusual to experience a variety of uncomfortable and painful sensations for weeks and even months after this surgery. As long as your symptoms are improving with time, you should be good.

I agree with you about the pain killers – I only took them for about a day. Ice and over the counter anti- inflammatories did the trick for me.

Ah thanks. When I visited the hospital for the first time, the doctors said I would be able to bicycle again after a week. Clearly that was not the case.

The conditions are improving, but it still hurts.
