3 weeks ago I had an inguinal hurnia repaired and am starting to feel healed up, no more pain or tenderness. Does anyone have any idea how long I should wait before hitting the mats again? I don't want to tear it open again by prematurely resuming my normal activity.
4 - 6 weeks, that's what the doc recommended after I had surgery.
Damn, I'm going crazy waiting, but better safe than sorry. Thanks for the input, bro.
Yeah I agree with that. Also don't lift anything over 5-10 lbs you wouldn't want it to rupture.
yeah i just had the exact same surgery a month ago. I went back to the gym and started running about three days ago and i'm feeling good, but jits uses a lot of twisting through your core, much more so that general gym work. I'm playing it safe and taking another week, so yeah; five weeks total recovery and then easing back into it with drilling only.
Dam, I really wish I hadn't Google imaged that. Have a speedy recovery mate.
LOL, yeah it's not very fun. Thanks, bro.Quote:

The pain stopped after a few weeks, but I didn't go back to lifting heavy for almost 6 months because I still had a weird feeling where the surgery was.
I'm sure Andrew is ok by now. Its only been 13 months since he posted this. lol
6 months seems about right for this injury. You might can go to class and rep and learn or something. But rolling after hernia is ill advised. He was also smart about his injury and listened to his body.Quote:
