Ace made a sling/wrap at one time to keep pressure on the hernia check you local pharmacy. Had one done in 2016 did a number on the stomach muscles flopped like a carp for weeks trying to move around. The weakness lasted a long time way longer the I figured it would.
They did the 3 hole in the belly type of surgery the Doc said it was easier I forgot to ask on who him or me. LOL

I had it done in 2017 early in the morning left the hospital before noon was going to do the gun transactions for our local QDMA chapter that night but the wife said no way. I had no problems with my surgery. Good luck

I'm recuperating now from my surgery which was done on Jan.5,,which at this point is more still not lifting anything,taking long walks and doing menial things around the house.I'm healing as good as can be expected,I've went back once a week for check ups in which fluid was drained which I was told was normal.Now I go back in 2weeks.I was told there are 2 types of surgery for my type of hernia,one is fairly simple and the other is more complicated where they open you up and take out your belly button.Mine was the 3hole out patient surgery,the surgery itself is no big deal,but the days following you'll find out the meaning of sore.You have no idea how many times you use your stomach muscles in the course of a day.I had mine for a long time,and before I had the surgery had enlarge d quite a bit.I follow the doctors orders close and not be a he man because I want this done and over with.

I said in my earlier post I'm recuperating,I'm not trying to sound like an invalid.I've refrained from doing anything that might interfere with the healing.We heat with wood pellets,there's no way am I going to throw around those 40 pd bags.Or cut firewood from down trees in our yard,that sort of thing.I get around just fine,I just don't push it,if you know what I mean

jbyrd.....I'm assuming when you say the "3 hole technique" it will be done laparoscopically? I had bilateral hernia surgery done and I was opened up, sliced and diced. It was absolutely miserable. Swore if I ever had to do it again that I would never, ever have it done that way again. I know a couple of guys that have had it done laparoscopically and they said it wasn't bad, nothing like what I went through.

It’s kind of a warning system for the future if you push it you will feel it years later when you over do it, I had pain on and off for a couple years but I’m always on the move it’s better now 4 years later. If I had to do it again I’d wear a belt as long as that did the job.

I was born with one. Had the surgery. Couldn't walk for a year.
My dad had it done with the 3 hole technique a couple years ago. The worst part for him was the pain from the gas they use to blow you up to be able to get around. He said it all settled in his shoulders and upper back. That pain made him forget about the pain in his groin for a couple days.

Same here 3 hole laparoscopic with mesh hurts all the time and the mesh released just going to deal with it. Feels like I have vise grips pinching my skin all the time and the staples keep working out to my outer skin. Yep. I've had it done both ways, double hernia both times. Old fashion in 85 or so, 3 hole with mesh bout 23 years ago, near I can remember. The mesh sucks, still dealing with that

I’ve had both sides done. Do not get the hernia mesh !!! Had the left side done 50 years ago and that Dr. did a good job with no mesh, never had troubles there since. Had the right side done 20+years ago Dr. used mesh, have had pain ever since. Comes and goes. Contacted DR. And my medical records and it stated the mesh used is not the same as the one advertised by all the lawyers on TV. So I live with the pain.
I would never let Drs. Put mesh in me again. The problem with mess it shrinks over time and that is what causes the problem. Women who have bladder lifts using mesh have the same problem. The mesh must be made of denim. My blue jean's have been shrinking for a few years.
