Event or Problem Description
|
|
It was reported that following an operation in (b)(6) 2021 for the installation of the left and right mesh, polypropylene prostheses for bilateral inguinal hernias at the groin level, persistent pain at the implant site occurred daily and has continued since 2021.The pain was described as morally distressing and sometimes more intense, requiring stretching or changes in position for temporary relief.The pain also handicapped the patient's sex life, with intense pain occurring after sexual activity, and impacted participation in sports, with increased pain during certain movements.Medication prescribed for nerve pain did not decrease the pain, even at increased doses.Rehabilitation with a physiotherapist reduced the pain, but it returned quickly if exercises were stopped.
