Patient's question:
I had laparoscopic hernia repair surgery 55 days ago. The testicle side of the mesh is swollen and hasn't improved, and it still hurts a bit.Doctor's answer:
Since the artificial mesh patch is repaired at the weakest point, it does not require suturing and can quickly fuse with the abdominal wall tissue to form a highly tensile joint. Because the implanted patch is 10x15 cm in size, it can simultaneously cover the vulnerable and defect areas where, , and are prone to occur.Recommendation: After hernia repair surgery, it is generally advised to avoid strenuous exercise or prolonged physical labor within three months. Therefore, it is recommended to rest for two to three months.
