I have Femoral Hernia surgery tomorrow and it's hard to tell from message groups online how long the recovery will be. My doctor was also very vague.
Background, I am a runner and lift weight. Job is in computers so sitting a lot. I know the restriction on heavy lifting will be 4-6 weeks.
Anyone with experience on this type of surgery would greatly appreciate feedback.
I wish I could answer that but I didn't have that kind I do know that any hernia it takes weeks to heal just don't lift anything
I am 2 weeks post ops and all is going well. I am on a 10 lb lifting restriction which is common. Now I am just experience a lump in the healing ridge of the scar. I was worried I might have hurt something but from what I understanding this area could be hard for a few weeks to a few months. My follow up is next week. I hope to start running in 2 more weeks.
