Case: inguinal hernia repair july 2004,
4-6 week recovery period. Pain free for 1
year ( july 2005 ) until after pulling on
a heavy door felt the same burning pain in
the same area as the 2004 surgery.
Followed up with two different surgons who
have both rulled out a hernia after both
phys. Exam and ultrasound. The pain has
gotten more intense over the past couple
of months and aches and burns after
standing or minor activety.
Any ideas? Anybody know or had any pain
managment for neuromas and or messomas.
I feel like I pulled or moved something in
the mesh and am looking for someone who
might have experienced this sort of pain.
What is making your pain worse?
Did you wake up from surgery in terrible
pain?
How long ago was your repair?

No I didnt lose a nut. Its a joke name I
have been ising for some time and just
happens to be related.
I got an appointment today to see the doc.
He said there is a 90% chance I have a
reoccurance. So ill have to get this
taken care of. Because Mesh was used
orignally, i will have to stick to that
method in this instance.
I dont what kind of mesh was used as I am
a novice. Ill have to learn more.

Good Luck today.
You can ask your surgeon what type of mesh
was used or get copies of your operative
reports from the hospital specifically
asking for this information.
