What is a Kugel Mesh hernia patch?
A hernia patch is a medical device that's become prevalent in recent years to help patients recover more quickly from hernia surgery. "Kugel Mesh" is a brand name of the patch. This patch was intended to ease patients' pain and recovery time by "flattening out" after it's implanted inside of the patient and to help stabilize the area.

How do I know if the patch I have is one that's been recalled?
The best way to find out if you're at risk for injury is by consulting with the doctor who performed your surgery immediately. He or she has received notice of the specific patches that were recalled, and he or she will be able to answer that question for you.

How do I know if I've been injured by a Kugel Mesh Hernia Patch?
Common symptoms have been identified by those who have suffered from use of these defective patches. These symptoms include persistent abdominal pain of varying intensity that is often unexplained in nature, fever and tenderness or soreness at the surgical site. More severe symptoms include intense pain triggered by bowel movements, nausea and vomiting, fecal vomiting and other abdominal injuries that you can't otherwise explain.
