Hernias Do Not Just Occur In Men
Hernias are typically thought of as a problem for men. It is important to note, however, that women are also at-risk for developing a painful and potentially threatening hernia. Inguinal hernias, which often plague men, can also develop in women. These hernias, if not properly treated can lead to serious complications. Treatment of a serious hernia usually requires surgery.
If you have had an invasive operation to repair a hernia and AlloDerm was used in the procedure, you may be at risk for a reoccurrence of a hernia. This may necessitate a second, costly surgery and lead to additional and unnecessary pain. Contact the AlloDerm failure lawyers of Williams Kherkher by calling 800-761-3187 today to speak with a skilled and experienced attorney about your legal rights in this situation.
Hernias in Women
Inguinal hernias can develop in women as well as men. Left untreated, an inguinal hernia can be excruciatingly painful. It can cause severe vomiting, nausea, and pain if the intestine is not freed from the herniated state. If a hernia is not treated quickly, it can also cause permanent damage to the intestines. If you notice any of the following symptoms, you may have developed an inguinal hernia.
- A sore bulge in the lower abdomen
- Pain during coughing
- Sharp pain from heavy lifting
- A heavy sensation in the groin area
