  • Sticky: Very late on an update, but happy to report that...

    Very late on an update, but happy to report that at the 7 year mark everything is still as described in my last comment (good). Yet again, good luck and a swift recovery to you all.
  • Sticky: A little late for my yearly comment, but...

    A little late for my yearly comment, but thankfully just hopping in to report everything is still as described in my last comment (good). Again, good luck and a swift recovery to you all.
  • Sticky: Just checking in again at the 3 year mark here,...

    Just checking in again at the 3 year mark here, you can find my earlier posts for more details, but essentially I had a right inguinal hernia repaired; open repair, using mesh. So far haven't...
  • Sticky: I got some exercise bands to do some leg...

    I got some exercise bands to do some leg exercises with (lying on my back), and also used some very light weights in a similar position; mostly activities that didn't stress the core. Definitely keep...
  • Sticky: Good luck with your recovery. From memory, the...

    Good luck with your recovery. From memory, the first few days are the worst, I didn't have pain, but felt very delicate and took everything very cautiously; it was a good few days before I could...
  • Sticky: Just a post to check in shortly after the 2 year...

    Just a post to check in shortly after the 2 year mark; you can look at my earlier post for finer details, but the abridged version was in the quote. In short, nothing really to report, which is good;...
  • Sticky: Good luck with the recoveries =D

    Good luck with the recoveries =D
  • Sticky: Wow, that sounds like quite the removal...

    Wow, that sounds like quite the removal procedure, glad you're checking in and letting us know how you're getting on, it's very hard to find patient outcomes, this thread is an excellent source....
  • Sticky: I'm glad to hear your decision to get the mesh...

    I'm glad to hear your decision to get the mesh removed is going well, I wish you all the best for your recovery, it sounds like you've had a quite a ride.

    Keen to hear how you get on, I really...
  • Sticky: Good luck with your recovery. Do you mean the...

    Good luck with your recovery. Do you mean the base of the penis? Some swelling/bruising in that area is usual, especially so soon after recovery. The surgery does involve manipulating the spermatic...
  • Sticky: I agree with the last post, best to discuss those...

    I agree with the last post, best to discuss those options with a medical professional. In my case, from the reading I did, and knowing I'd continue to be active, I came to the conclusion watchful...
  • Sticky: I would agree with the bulk of what SoccerAgain...

    I would agree with the bulk of what SoccerAgain said about spending time doing as much research as you can, and if at all possible trying research the surgeon you'll have (clearly ability to do this...
  • Sticky: Im sure it's not any great consolation, but I was...

    Im sure it's not any great consolation, but I was really anxious before my surgery. Like yourself I'd never had any surgical procedure at all, I had a really nice anaesthetist who put me at ease and...
  • Sticky: Good luck as well I hope there's some way forward...

    Good luck as well I hope there's some way forward for you. It does seem that there's so much variation in technique/surgeon/patients that it's hard to get a clear picture of what the best move for an...
  • Sticky: Hi all, Just a brief followup on my surgery,...

    Hi all,

    Just a brief followup on my surgery, 1 year + 1 month ago, nothing hugely interesting to report bar what I've previously written (page 34). My experience has been very positive, I've...
  • Sticky: I've posted further back so you can see in detail...

    I've posted further back so you can see in detail what my situation was, but in terms of a short roundup/disclaimer: I had right hand side inguinal hernia repair around a year ago; It was a long...
  • Sticky: Good to hear such a detailed outline of your...

    Good to hear such a detailed outline of your recovery so far, sounds like you had a very similar experience to mine (a few pages back), right (I believe indirect) and repaired with open/mesh. I was...
  • Sticky: Glad to hear you're recovering with only mild...

    Glad to hear you're recovering with only mild pain, the first few days of old man hobbling/bending are tricky, but moving around is key and you'll get your full movement back soon!
  • Sticky: Bilateral just refers to him having an inguinal...

    Bilateral just refers to him having an inguinal hernia on both sides. I believe he had a open mesh repair based on an earlier post (he posted a lot on page 26 of this thread). If possible, I would...
  • Sticky: Glad to hear you're on the mend. I've seen people...

    Glad to hear you're on the mend. I've seen people talk on these boards about seromas post surgery, always best to get any concerns checked out with a medical professional.
