People throughout Mississippi and across the nation have undergone hernia operation to repair injuries and improve their quality of life. They went under the knife because they trusted their doctors and wanted to move on to a future without the pain and complications of a hernia.
Unfortunately, the mesh used to strengthen the hernia repairs has proven to be detrimental to hernia patients, resulting in infections, pain, additional surgeries and even death. At Hearn Law Firm, PLLC, we believe that the manufacturers of hernia mesh should be held accountable for the damage they have caused. Our lead attorney, Philip C. Hearn, puts decades of personal injury litigation experience to work for the injured and looks forward to helping make things right for the victims of hernia mesh.
Hernia Mesh Symptoms
Defective hernia mesh causes a number of symptoms, such as:
- Infections
- Chronic pain
- Perforation
- Adhesion
Failed hernia mesh can also result in obstructions such as potentially deadly bowel obstructions. The failure of hernia mesh products is often uncovered when a patient requires a second operation due to a recurrence of the underlying hernia condition. A second operation exposes a patient to all the risks of surgery, a high price to pay through no fault of their own.
