About Hernia Mesh

What is hernia mesh? Hernia mesh – or surgical mesh – is a medical device that is designed to support damaged tissue around hernias; it essentially allows the damaged tissue to heal after the hernia has been addressed. During the procedure, doctors place the hernia mesh across the area surrounding the hernia. The mesh can be attached with stiches, staples, or glue, for instance. The surgical mesh is porous; this allows tissue to grow into the mesh. If the device works as it should and is installed correctly, it should result in a lower recovery time as well as a decreased risk of the hernia reoccurring.

All medical procedures come with some risks. There are a number of complications that can occur after hernia mesh procedures. Some of the common complications include the following:

• Adhesion
• Hernia recurrence
• Infections
• Migrating of the mesh in the body
• Obstruction of the bowel
• Pain
• Perforation of organs
• Shrinking of the mesh

The risk of complications increases significantly when the hernia mesh is defective.

Hernia Mesh Rejection – The Symptoms

What are the symptoms of hernia mesh rejection? Hernia mesh rejection, one of the most common issues surrounding hernia mesh procedures, is associated with some of the following symptoms:

• Chronic pain
• Debilitating abdominal pain

• Irritable bowel syndrome

Filing the Claim within the Deadline

What is the timeline to file my hernia mesh case? Is it too late to file a hernia mesh case? The answer to this question depends on the details surrounding the incident. Your claim is subject to a statute of limitations; the statute of limitations determines the specific length of time that claimants have to pursue your claim. How long do you have to pursue a claim for the harm that you suffered associated with defective hernia mesh? In California, product liability claims are normally subject to a two-year statute of limitations. This means that victims will have two-years to pursue a claim. However, if your claim qualifies as a medical malpractice claim, your claim will be subject to either a three-year deadline (from the date of injury) or a one-year deadline (from the date of discovery). If you are interested in learning more about the total length of time that you have to file your claim, contact the experts at our firm at your earliest convenience.
