Symptoms of pelvic mesh problems

The symptoms of pelvic mesh problems can be wide-ranging and can leave patients with complications for a long time, and in some cases, indefinitely.

In many cases, it’s only possible to remove part of the ineffective mesh device, and in other cases, it cannot be removed at all. However, even when it can be removed, women can be left with severe complications from nerve damage and scarring caused by the mesh.

It’s therefore important to recognise the symptoms associated with vaginal mesh problems, and it’s also important to know your legal rights.

Vaginal mesh aftercare criticised worldwide

Vaginal mesh aftercare, especially when things go wrong, has faced significant criticism around the world, including here in the UK.

Last year, a widespread pause for the use of transvaginal mesh and tape for things like stress urinary incontinence (SUI) and pelvic organ prolapse (POP) was put in place. In April this year, revised guidelines were issued by NICE (The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence), which have also faced stern criticism.

When it comes what you can do about the injustices of poor aftercare, you should know that you have rights. And we’re here to help you.

Long-term effects of pelvic mesh remain worrying

The long-term effects of pelvic mesh remain a considerable concern, and this year’s changes to the guidelines surrounding the use of mesh implants has not been too helpful.

The pelvic mesh saga has been going on for over a decade now, and thousands of women have suffered problems and compilations. This has led to compensation claims being made around the world, including the clients we represent for cases here in the UK. Despite the problems many women have suffered from, mesh is still used for surgery, and people are still being harmed.

With this in mind, the long-term impact of transvaginal mesh devices continues to be a worry,. The issue as to whether the plight of suffering women is being ignored remains at the heart of why this procedure continues to be controversial.

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.
