I enjoy dancing and swimming, as a result I still participate in these activities. My surgeon told me I was fine for swimming four weeks after the operation. Since I'm not big i can feel the mesh from the outside of my body if I put my hand over my abdomen. Now my question is is it safe that I dance. Can this result in the mesh moving inside? I am not sure if my surgeon sutured the mesh or not, but lets say he didn't, can dancing make it move out of place and if so how would I know if it moved? I am not sure if my surgeon sutured the mesh or not, but lets say he didn't.
