    Rapid recovery after surgery is dependent on the location of the hernia, the type of hernia, the repair technique used as well as your individual, physical health. With advanced surgical techniques patients experience considerably less post-operative pain, have fewer restrictions after surgery and recover rapidly.

    Patients typically return to everyday activities within DAYS of surgery and can return to work and back to recreational and sport activities within two weeks.

    NOTE: Recovery following incisional and/or more complex hernias may be slightly longer to some extent depending on the involvedness and type of the hernia and the general heath of the patient.
