You can go to work about one month after laparoscopic repair of inguinal hernia, but only about three months if you are a manual laborer. Because laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair surgery has the advantage of being less painful, quicker recovery and less traumatic, but since the same patch is currently used to repair weaknesses in the inguinal canal and defective areas, the process of fusion of the patch with the body tissue takes about three months. Therefore, for the average mental worker, the patch will not cause an increase in intra-abdominal pressure because it does not require weight bearing, and he or she can go to work normally in about a month. In the case of manual workers, such as those engaged in the transport industry, it is also necessary to avoid weight-bearing for three months after surgery. Therefore, if a manual laborer undergoes laparoscopic hernia repair surgery, it is also necessary to wait for three months until the patch is completely fused with the body and the local tissues are firm before going to work normally, otherwise it will easily cause recurrence of hernia.
