Options for private mesh removal surgery

As a law firm representing women for vaginal mesh compensation claims, we know how bad things can get. And that’s why we know how important private mesh removal surgery can be.

With the NHS still offering the procedure, the risks to women continue. In some cases, the mesh implant complications that can arise can be so bad that further surgery is needed together with a lengthy treatment plan. This can be achieved via the NHS, but it isn’t always easy to obtain. In some cases, people have had to wait for months for help, or even longer than a year. That can be the case for both surgery and for treatment.

So, what do you do when your life is on hold and you need to wait for a long time for treatment? Private mesh removal surgery and treatment is one option, and this can be factored into a claim for compensation.

Has TVT mesh has ruined your sex life?

We know this can be a difficult subject to discuss, but if TVT mesh has ruined your sex life, what can you do?

There are a number of incredibly serious complications that can arise from TVT mesh surgery. One of those is the serious impact it can have on your sex life. The constant pain and the damage to the surrounding tissues can make intercourse simply too painful (known as dyspareunia). The mental stress alone can also have an impact on physical relationships as well.

Unfortunately, as we often say, we can’t turn back the clock. What we can do is help you with a legal case for compensation if you’ve suffered as a result of a TVT mesh implant that has gone wrong. The levels of damages that can be awarded can be high given the severity of the complications that can arise.

It’s right to be worried about pelvic mesh safety

We think that people are right to be worried about pelvic mesh safety, especially as we’re lawyers who have seen first-hand just how bad the problems can be.

We’re acting for a number of women who are claiming mesh implant compensation. Some of the complications our client have suffered are serious. Some women can be left with lifelong problems that can leave them unable to walk or work ever again.

The recent revised guidelines have been criticised as not going far enough to ensure that women are protected when this procedure is an option on the table. The debate over pelvic mesh safety may well continue for quite some time.

Help with mesh implant symptoms

If you’re suffering with problematic mesh implant symptoms, it may be that your device has failed or you’re a victim of inadequate medical care, and you may need further medical attention.

Surgical mesh complications symptoms

Here’s a guide to what you need to know about surgical mesh complications symptoms, and what you should do if you’re suffering with them.

A surgical mesh procedure is intended to be permanent, and it’s an invasive procedure. It can be hard to tell whether complications are just a part of the long-term recovery, or whether something has gone wrong.

Despite thousands of women suffering complications, the use of surgical mesh has continued. This was until a recent widespread pause was put in place. This was (finally) the recognition that surgical mesh complications need to be better understood to avoid more women coming to harm.

Is it impossible to remove mesh implants?

Where TVT or TVM has gone wrong, the big worry is whether it’s impossible to remove mesh implant devices that have been surgically fitted.

With failing mesh implants often leading to serious complications and serious suffering for women, the idea that it’s impossible to remove the device is frightening. The pain and problems that devices can cause have left some women unable to walk or work for the rest of their lives. The problems have led to some being in constant pain and unable to have intercourse.

So, is it impossible to remove mesh implant devices in some case?
