    It's not that bad, but it's obviously gonna hurt a little for a short while but the pain is eventually going to fade away in some couple weeks after the surgery and it's probably gonna take around 1 to 2 hours in maximum so there's nothing to worry about. You'll be fine.

      I don't mind the pain. I just don't like surgeries. I know I have to do it. It's been 2 years. What limitations are there?

      You'll probably have to to avoid lifting any heavy weights and doing activities such as biking, even hiking and exercices after the surgery until your doctor says it's okay

    My cousin had it done she said it wasn’t a big deal. She was in for procedure same day. They put her out stitched her up. She rested for one day after & the stitches were the dissolving kind.

      I have to get one done for my stomach but I’ve been putting it off bc it’s not severe and I don’t like being poked and prodded. But yeah eventually I’ll have to.

      Lol. 7 years? That's crazy. I wouldn't really do it soon if it didn't start to hurt. Since I've been working every day since April (maybe had 8 days off with the holidays) I think it's making it stretch more. Starting to hurt across the stomach.

      It doesn’t hurt unless Bella’s jumps on me. But yeah it’s not good lol I have to do it. 🤦🏻‍♀️

      Thing is you can’t see anything just by looking and my belly button was alway very sensitive since from birth so I never ever touch it directly anyhow and a bit of pain was normal. I didn’t even know I had a problem that has developed and it’s still not weird for me to have pain so it’s hard to remember it can get worse 😬

      I was playing tug of body with a guy who I guess wasn’t expecting he to be strong and I accidentally pulled the rubber cord out if his hands by accident and it hit me in the stomach so I knew that hurt lol

      Yup but what was nice is it was palatable so I thought if that is not the worst then I guess I’m ok? Lol

    I had a double hernia repair. It was uncomfortable for the first day and I took the pain pills for the first two or three days. It probably took a couple of months before I was back to normal.

      I think I was out for six weeks. I needed a note from the doctor that said no restrictions. It was about another month before I could workout like before.

    By a quick google search, it suggest you ought to not do any heavy labour for about 2 months.
    And to your hopes of someone having one in the past, I hope no one did.

    I've never had a hernia operation, but my grandfather did. I don't know how was it because I've never asked him.

    15 years ago I did the surgery. For me it was my intestine that went through a hole , into my ball sack. One-day operation. Pull it out, patch it up , and see me back up. Hard time walking, laugh coughing for about a month.

    I’ve had three hernia operations over the years. And they were fine, just a little soreness after the anaesthetic wore off. It’s nothing to worry about, you’ll be fine.
