| What is mesh and do you use it? | ||
| ||
| Mesh is a synthetic material that looks like very fine fishing net. It can add strength to the groin after surgery. But the mesh can also cause significant problems. The most common problem is pain. The pain is the result of a nerve becoming adhered to the mesh or the result of the mesh become stiff from fibrosis. Thus, unless absolutely required, I do not advise the use of mesh. |
