On May 15, 2018, I had ventral hernia with mesh surgery (laparscoptic). I now have a hard lump that is sore & tender. My doctor is wanting to do another surgery on July 27th stating she believes it is scar tissue. This has me extremely worried because she didn't sound sure using terms like "it looks like" it's just some scar tissue. Has anyone experienced this problem after hernia surgery? If so what was the outcome?

    Omg I would definitely do it I’ve had complications for over three years from an a left inguinal surgery with mesh plug . My life has never been the same . If a doctor is willing to clear scar tissue I would take the chance . My pain is unbearable at times because no one will touch me because of scar tissue . Good luck to you . I hope everything goes well . ❤️
