Patient: I just had a laparoscopic rights ingroinial hernia repair two weeks ago prior to the surgery I had a lot of intestine in my scrotum about a pound-1/2. I know swelling is bound to happen but the fluid mass in my scrotum feels hard and I m scared my surgeon said it common and after a ct scan the mesh is intact but the hardening has me worried what should I do I try to sleep with my torso elevated but I don t see any reduction please help I m worried it s will stay that way well beyond normal healing time or what s the time frame? Doctor: HIWell come to HCMSuch discomfort and hardening and swelling in case of mesh placed in inguinal hernia, operation is very common condition (Post operative ) you need to be very patience for few weeks, if this does not improved then this need to be discuss with your surgeon, in my opinion old technic of repair of hernia would be best, (Without mess) hope this information helps, take care, have a nice day.
