how long does it take to heal after fistulectomy surgery and what side effects should i expect also any tips to speed up recovery
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Fistulectomy typically requires 4 to 6 weeks for complete healing, with most feeling better within a week. Expect some mild pain, swelling, and discomfort. To speed up recovery, follow your surgeon's instructions, manage pain, prioritize rest, and avoid strenuous activities

I recently had laparoscopic surgery for an inguinal hernia, but it's been 10 days and now I'm dealing with fever and chills. They found out there's an infection and pus where the mesh is, though it's sterile with no bacteria found. The doctor thinks my body is rejecting the mesh and wants to do another surgery to take it out. Is there any other option besides a second surgery and mesh removal? And if they do take out the mesh, am I at risk of getting another inguinal hernia? Just looking for some advice on what to do next. Any suggestions?
Mesh is required to strengthen the wall, in direct hernia this is done to prevent the recurrence of hernia.. Doctor will the mesh allergy, mesh is made of inert metal which don't react with external agent.. But if you are really allergic to it then they will remove it...
