Weeks 3 + 4 After Umbilical Hernia Surgery

Dr. Michael Reinhorn, a hernia specialist at Boston Hernia, discusses the recovery process after two weeks post-ventral or umbilical hernia surgery. He emphasizes that most patients feel good and can gradually increase their activity level. However, it's important to listen to your body and avoid pushing yourself too hard too soon. Key Points: Activity: Gradually increase activity levels. Pain: Some discomfort and pain with movement are expected for the first few months. Healing: The fascia takes six weeks to fully heal. Listen to your body: Don't overdo it and avoid activities that cause significant pain. Monitor your pain: If pain worsens or is significantly different from post-surgery pain, contact your doctor.
