Post hernia surgery recovery

Dear Ask The Doctor: How long after surgery could a 14 year old resume some light exercises?
Dear Trevor: Recovery time form hernia surgery varies between individuals as well as depending on the type of hernia surgery performed. After 6 weeks, the majority of persons would have recovered from inguinal hernia surgery. It would be safe to resume light exercises at this point. If the hernia repair was done laparoscopically, recovery time is usually much shorter, approximately 3-4 weeks. |
