Just had laparoscopic surgery for a left side inguinal
Hernia - 4 weeks into recovery now. The only rehab is NO ab work whatsoever.

The inguinal canal is an abdominal weak point in the male anatomy - doubt there is any exercise that can fix a hernia once it forms. I had put this surgery off for about 10 years- in retrospect I wish I had done it sooner. In just a month of healing you can’t tell i even had surgery because the incisions (3) are so small. The surgeon told me that in 6 weeks healing would be complete and I tend to agree with him. Only an occasional twinge of pain now and I am back to lifting, although just moderate weights at the moment

I don't want the mesh fix.
Too many cases of complications from the mesh.
My hernia is a very mild.  Most times it is not visible.
I wear a hernia belt.
There is a doc north of me who does the meshless Shouldice procedure.
Unfortunately he doesn't accept my insurance.

what do you think caused your Hernia ?

[IroNat]

what do you think caused your Hernia ?

Pushing out poopers on the toilet.
Either that or dancing at my son's wedding as it happened right after that.
I think it was the poopers though.

you shouldn´t need this if you have a decent diet of fiber, i eat a diet of mainly fish & vegetables, brown rice but a few other things like lean chicken.
salads are important for me such as broccoli, tomatoes..spinach..

I had the right side fixed with mesh 20 years ago. No problems whatsoever. My surgeon does both- says the mesh-less surgery is weak- he’ll do it but he says they always come back for the mesh, lol

One of his colleagues specializes in the mesh-less repair in Florida. My best friend had it last year- took close to 6 months to recover.
