What are allergic symptoms of hernia mesh implant?
Patient: My husband had a hernia repair surgery about ten days ago he had the mesh implant now he has a rash on his whole body and is very itchy and cold and he had no reason to be cold with the heater going I was wondering if it is an allergic reaction to the mesh he also does not have a spleen so I am very worried he took some benedryl and it did nothing and he has never had any kind of rash ever till now Doctor: HIThank for asking to HCMI really appreciate your concern for your husband, if your husband does not have history of any allergic condition then the mesh would be the reason for that you have to talk to the surgeon, mean while the allergic symptoms need to be treated with the "Tab Levocetrizine 10 mg three times in day" hope this information helps you, have nice day.
