hernia all you need to know

"A hernia occurs when an organ, intestine or fatty tissue squeezes through a hole or a weak spot in the surrounding muscle or connective tissue. Hernias often occur at the abdominal wall.  Sometimes a hernia can be visible as an external bulge particularly when straining or bearing down.

Hernia is a surgical implant that provides extra support for damaged tissue. Surgeons place the mesh across the area surrounding the hernia. It helps hold damaged tissue together and strengthen it as it heals. Surgeons attach hernia mesh with stitches, staples or glue.

Hernia mesh complications can be life-threatening. Surgery is almost always necessary to fix hernia mesh complications. Recalled mesh has been responsible for some of the most serious complications.

The most serious complications after hernia mesh surgery can be deadly. At the very least, they can cause severe pain. They almost always need revision surgery to correct.

The most serious complications of hernia mesh are also some of the most common. These include adhesion, bowel obstruction or perforation, infection, rejection and migration.
