Frequently asked questions
Does every inguinal hernia need surgery?
Generally yes, because they do not heal on their own. Small, symptom-free hernias may be monitored, but surgery is the only way to repair them. In consultation we determine the right timing for you.
What is the mesh and is it safe?
It is a biocompatible material that reinforces the weakened area. Its use is the international standard because it significantly reduces recurrence. Modern materials are safe and well tolerated.
When can I lift weight again?
We recommend avoiding intense effort for 2 to 4 weeks. I will give you precise guidance for a gradual return to activity.
Can the hernia come back?
With proper technique and mesh, the risk of recurrence is low. Maintaining a healthy weight and avoiding excessive strain during the first weeks helps protect the repair.
