I had a right inguinal hernia repair. one was direct and the other indirect. Mesh was used and now I am having numbness on the right side between the suture site the extends down to the right testicle. Could this be the mesChatDoctorpressing on the spermatic cord causing this?
helloThanks for query. The numbness of thin the suture line after hernia surgery is mostly due to injury to Clio Inguinal nerve that occurs while separating hernia sac from spermatic cord. Normally it gets recovered spontaneously over a period of six months. It is not due to pressure of the mesh. Chat Doctor.
