    Thanks for the reply David M, you are right I can do everything with this hernia, push ups, abs workout, running, etc. I don’t do weight lifting though.
    What worries me is the prospective of this hernia size,its symptoms and the restrictions that I put to myself in terms of weight lifting now, even if it will be something casual, like moving some furniture, etc

    Based on my physical shape I guess my external oblique is okay for Desarda, what I don’t find here is not a lot of feedback on this repair and there is tons on Shouldice.On his videos dr. Desarda looks absolute on his way and this doesn’t convince me neither.

    In Poland there are 2 or 3 doctors who claim that do Desarda modified.
    For the watchful waiting, I’ve been doing it for more than 4 months now and hernia remains the same size, found some people on the Internet who say that theirs disappeared after some time with some kind of abs workout regime,diet changes,etc but is seems to me more anecdotal 🙂

    got it thank you, if I understand correctly you don’t recommend Lichtestein technique which may require neurectomy but the laparoscopic with a mesh that avoids the neurectomy
