I have a reccurring incisional hernia repair with mesh and severed right lower quadrant stomach muscle can this be repaired and a tummy tuck performed?
A surgeon severed some stomach muscle 4 years ago during abdominal surgery and I know suffer back pain from the pull the reoccurring hernia causes. I was operated on 3 years ago and had a mesh inserted - but the hernia is completely back.
Yes they can both be done together. You will need to find a general surgeon as well as a plastic surgeon. Some plastic surgeons who are also board certified general surgeon can perform both procedures for you.
The right lower abdominal pain needs to be investigated further to determine the cause of it.
Good luck.
