Small Umbilical Hernia Repair Advice
The area of the hernia repair is naturally tighter than it used to be. If you have pain or soreness after a workout, use ice. It should help.
I agree with the assessment by your surgeon/nurse.
I recommend visiting your surgeon so you can be examined. Sometimes there is a pulling and tearing of the muscle (not the suture) and this will take a while to recover from. It does t necessarily mean you tore the hernia apart.
