One of the most common symptoms associated with pelvic mesh complications is chronic pelvic pain. This discomfort can range from mild to severe and often worsens over time. Another frequent issue is pain during intercourse (dyspareunia), which can lead to significant emotional and physical distress.
Additionally, many women report urinary problems, such as difficulty urinating, frequent urinary tract infections, and even incontinence — the very condition the mesh was intended to treat. Mesh erosion, where the material breaks through vaginal tissues, can also cause vaginal bleeding or discharge, as well as discomfort during daily activities.
Other warning signs include bowel problems, such as constipation or rectal pain, and a sense of pressure or bulging in the pelvic region, which may indicate that the mesh has shifted or is failing to provide adequate support.
Women experiencing these symptoms should seek medical attention promptly, as untreated mesh complications can lead to more severe health consequences. Legal action, including class action lawsuits, is available for those affected, helping them seek compensation for their suffering and injuries.
