The importance of vaginal mesh surgery aftercare
The importance of vaginal mesh surgery aftercare cannot be understated, as it could mean the difference between issues being identified quickly or permanent problems ensuing. Inadequate aftercare could also lead to problems arising generally as well, which is something that always needs to be looked at as soon as possible given that pelvic mesh implants are designed to be permanent.
What could constitute poor aftercare could be a failure to provide enough in the way of follow-up appointments and investigations to identify potential problems. Another that could constitute inadequate aftercare could be the failure to properly investigate or treat any potential signs in respect of issues or worries and concerns that you advise of.
In the past, it has been true that some women have reportedly been dismissed and told that there was nothing to worry about when they presented concerns with regards to their pelvic mesh. Unfortunately, as it transpired in some of those cases, people were genuinely suffering real problems, but their concerns were not treated seriously enough which led to further problems and suffering.
What if the standard of care is not adequate enough?
If the standard of vaginal mesh surgery aftercare has not been adequate enough, you could be entitled to pursue a claim for compensation for any pain, suffering and loss of amenity caused. Whether the lack of adequate aftercare has resulted in short-term problems, or has either prolonged or resulted in a long-term issue, we may be able to help you.
As we often say, whilst we cannot turn back the clocks and undo any damage that has been done, we can use the law to achieve some form of justice for you by way of a personal injury compensation claim. You could be entitled to recover General Damages for any pain and problems that have been caused, and you may also be entitled to recover Special Damages for losses and expenses. Special Damages are important in pelvic mesh compensation cases given that some women could be left unable to walk or work ever again for the rest of their lives when things have gone wrong. In those cases, it is important to make sure that lost earnings are recovered and private treatment is available where this could help.
