Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
ive had several hernia repairs for an incisional hernia, my last repair was august since then lots of pain comes and gets worse but the reason never shows up on cat scan what could this pain be. its sharp and feels like a stab very painful at times sometimes dull but still hurts especially if I move the wrong way?
Hi and welcome to Healthcaremagic. I understand your concerns. The only efficient treatment is another surgical repair and this time you should insist on better quality mesh prothesis which can be inserted to prevent recurence. This can be done at hernia centres in larger hospitals.You should do MRI scan prior to this to see the position of hernia. I hope I have answered you query Kindly regards. Wish you a good health.
