Dr. Michele Loor from Baylor College of Medicine covers what to expect after your hernia repair surgery. Following a hernia repair surgery, patients are recommended to avoid: heavy lifting, pushing or pulling movements, and any activities that cause pain at the surgery site. Walking and light exercise is encouraged. Recovery time varies based on the size and location of the hernia, though average recovery takes about 2 weeks. A larger hernia may require a hospital stay to manage pain and healing.
