Because of the early discharge, there are often concerns and patients often ask their doctors, “What should I pay attention to after surgery? Is there anything I should avoid eating? When can I exercise? When can I go to work? When can I go hiking or running?” In response to these common questions, here is a unified answer, such as: Nowadays, more and more patients are using laparoscopic minimally invasive hernia repair. For patients with inguinal hernia, I usually discharge patients on the second day after laparoscopic hernia surgery, and some patients are discharged on the third day because they may have concerns.
