titanium mesh strength

[Itsliifee]

I had a tbi back in may 2017 and had to get a titanium mesh inserted on my head and it bothers me that I don’t know the strength of it. Like how easy can it bend or break?? Sometimes I tap it a little hard because I want to feel the strength and I hate that I have to do that ?? How your experience ?

My understanding is that it's strong and flexible and resist to corrosion or damage. It's to hold your skull together while it heals, it's not 'armor' and it's not a plate. It's really, really good, high tech and expensive chicken wire.
