Adults need to have inguinal hernia repair surgery in the following situations. Hernias that contain a loop of intestine without blood supply (strangulated hernias) require emergency surgery.
Postoperative recovery depends on the size and difficulty of the hernia repair. Pain is controlled by pain medications prescribed to you on discharge from the hospital. You will be able to walk after the surgery, though you will usually need about three weeks after surgery before restarting heavy physical activity. Patients usually take 1-2 weeks off from work after a laparoscopic ventral/incisional hernia repair.
