chronic pain from hernia mesh

Chronic pain from hernia mesh

Designed to resolve the painful and problematic issues following a hernia, hernia mesh is a form of medical device that has been used in UK healthcare for a number of years. Yet despite its widespread use, hernia mesh has – according to figures from the Royal College of Surgeons – reportedly been found to cause chronic pain in as many as one in ten patients. Chronic pain from hernia mesh can present affected patients with a number of everyday challenges that can be hard to overcome.

The statistics can be alarming, perhaps suggesting widespread concerns that may affect many patients. Many patients may be worried about such issues, and left wondering how such harm was allowed to occur. A similar trend has occurred across patients with pelvic/vaginal mesh implants, suggesting that this type of medical device could be unsafe and unfit for purpose in some cases.

As specialists in consumer group actions and medical negligence claims, we want to help patients who have been unfairly harmed by hernia mesh, as we believe they may have been victims of negligence. If the errors of a medical professional have caused you undue pain, you may be able to claim compensation for any harm caused.
