Laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair.
Let me share my experience recently having surgery. Prior to my operation I searched RU-vid to see others experience with inguinal hernia surgery. I realised everyone experience varies when it comes to recovery. I hope my experience will help put you at ease. It’s really not that bad.
Good luck to everyone waiting to undergo this procedure.

@@hendogtv1744 My post-op journey has been similar. Pain is there but not so awful that I can't handle it. Dissipates a little each day. Lots of walking to keep the blood flowing for a faster recovery. Constipation was an issue for the first day or so. I'd compare the pain to that which one might feel the day after doing a bunch of crunches for the first time. And they give you pain meds, which in my opinion are stronger than necessary yet a nice break (even half a tablet) from the post-op discomfort. My feeling is that some could get by with just OTC analgesics. Maybe even nothing. Thanks again for your post, Hendog.

Good for you brother i meet with a surgeon in couple days ...any recommendations i should talk to the surgeon about?

@hendogtv1744 12 часов назад

I don’t know what you could ask the Surgeon. All a recommend is to avoid pain medication that might constipate you. I consumed about 3000mg per day vitamin C to keep my stool soft for easy passing of stool. You don’t want to be straining on the toilet 🚽

I was constipated 3 days after surgery. The first No2 was ok as I ate fruit before surgery, but the second No2 was very difficult to get out. Straining! ... so I recommend eating foods that make you go to the toilet easy, post surgery, and maybe take laxative if ok with Doctor. I took 2 Coloxy w/ Senna tablets and it only caused gas. Have suppositories available too to help get the hard parts past the exit. After the operation in hospital, I ate a small fruit salad, then chicken with sauce, and a little rice, then followed by small salad, for first meal. I still got constipated from this, so avoid anything that will clung you up. Aim for fibre and fruit and veg. Have lots of water. The problem is you don't want to damage the hernia repair straight up. My pain level was like 1-2 many times in the first few days, with maybe a 4 here and there. After day 6, bruising set in over testicle middle front, and side, that had the hernia. Very painful, but still 6 out of 10 when moving. I got laparoscopic method, and the three entry points under near the belly button, 7 days ago.
