Have I messed up my hernia surgery?
aminuts – If you’re gardening and lifting heavy rocks, it sounds like you are an active woman. You cannot hurt the hernia repair. It is done. The laparoscopic method places the mesh behind the hole, same as fixing a car tire, so no worries there. There is no logical physiologic explanation to tie your symptoms in to a single diagnosis with a cure. If you’re able to remain active, maybe you should just keep on going, and accept minor aches and pains, as long as you can still live your life normally. If the problem is more severe, keep looking in to it. It is normal to have some aches and pains for many reasons, including previous surgery, but not if they are severe and/or preventing you from living your life. Hope this helps!
