Recovering After Hernia Surgery Posted: 11-21-06 15:03pm
I had an inguinal hernia surgery with mesh
4 weeks ago.
I had a follow-up and the doctor told me
to see him again in another month.
The swelling and discoloration are going
away.
I have trouble walking. I use a cane and
have pain after walking.
Experiences, suggestions?

Hi, I had the same op in 2005. I
struggled with any form of exercise
including walking for about 6 weeks. This
is about the time they say you should not
lift anything heavy let alone walking. I
must say after about 2 months I was back
mountain biking and playing golf so just
be patient and take it easy,,, good luck

I had surgery with the mesh about 5 weeks
again. I am now experiencing burning
paid around the site and occassional sharp
pains. Not enough for pain medication,
but it doesn't seem to be getting any
better. My surgeon only check me one
week out and then didn't need to see me
again. I am wondering if this is normal
or you would get back to the doctor?
