I had an indirect inguinal hernia repaired yesteraday morning using an open "plug and patch" method. Has anyone here had a similar procedure? How long was the recovery? Right now, it's pretty painful but ok if I take the Vicodin they prescribed. Any thoughts or insights would be appreciated.
bump
2-3 weeks
I had surgury in Oct. Started to run in Dec. Its still sore. but being 58 I am a little slower at recovering than I want to be. good luck. x
I had it following Boston in 2006 and was running again in 3 weeks or so. Age 43 at the time.
How soon until you get a slow 3-5 miler in?
