t know if all hernias are the same or not but my husband has an umbilical hernia and the surgery for that is a day surgery. Cysts done via horizontal cut are a 3 - 5 day hospital stay and much more involved.

My surgeon tells me he will insert a tube throught the stomach to hold it in place after my hiatal hernia surgery. Is this normal and how will it be removed? He said it would stay in about 2 wks. He also said it would not be a feeding tube, just something to hold the stomach in place. Anyone ever had this done?

You may leave the same day but if the hernia was large you may be asked to stay in hospital for aday.After surgery your vital parameters will be monitored and depending on the parameters you will be discharged. Once back home avoid lifting or strenuous exercise for at least the first two weeks, light exercise like walking can be done. The recovery time varies person to person and depends on your general health condition and extent of hernia.

My husband had the surgery many years ago and he did just fine. You will have to take it easy for awhile though. Depending on how extensive the hernia is, I would'nt be too surprised if they do the surgery out patient. Of course you'll receive pains meds and the Dr will send you home with a script for pain meds.

m taking my sibling to the hospital in a few weeks for a hernia operation. They said that the hospital said that I must stay at the hospital until after their surgery is complete. I've never heard of this policy before, I thought maybe my sibling is saying this because they have severe anxiety at times. Before I question them about it, I wanted to ask if anyone has ever heard of such a policy? Thank you for any feedback.

( I always get an infection after surgery.) Earlier this year I had surgery and got an infection and I was in the hospital for 45 days. I don't want another long hospital stay. It is very dangerous for me to get an infection especially in my abdomen because I have two shunts that drain into my abdomen that drain from brain and spine. If bacteria reaches those shunts it gets a free ride straight to my brain. I don't really know why I keep getting an infection and either do my doctors.

My mother (58 y/o, had total abdominal hysterectomy 2016, hospital stay was 21 days with severe ileus) underwent incisional hernia repair surgery for a large hernia in the incisional area, which was caused by her having a severe case of ileus last year. She was sent home the day after, contrary to what was programmed and paid for. She spent most of the day okay, BUT then around 9 PM she got really sick, all nauseous and bloated.

Has anyone every had any experience with this? What type of surgery was done and how long was the recovery time? What type of limitations were set after the surgery and for how long? DH is our only source of income at this point and while this is most likely going to be a workmans comp issue I want to be prepared. Thanks for any insight!

Although these doctors were at High Wycombe hospital they had top reviews for inguinal hernia repair and do it private so I decided to stay. I arrived this morning early and I was seen by one of his colleagues a doctor Anihkl which I was disappointed in but I proceeded with the appointment.

So my step sister just got out of surgery. She had a hysterectomy, a hernia in her stomach repaired, and they removed a kidney from one of her 2 kidney transplants. I'm wondering since I have a 7 week old, if I should avoid seeing her at the hospital. Opinions?

2- If money is an issue, get it done at an outside surgery facility not in a hospital, its cheaper, and has a lesser chance of infection... some hernia centers/ OBGYNs/Urologists and such have their own surgery facilities. That goes for anyone who needs any kind of surgery and is a little short on money a lot of people don't know this...trust me i work in the administrative part of a hospital (no medical experience) the difference in the price is HUGE!

The advantages of incisionless surgery over conventional laparoscopic or open GERD surgery include shorter hospital stay, reduced discomfort, shortened recovery, no visible scars, and typically higher satisfaction. I have not had ne surgery for my hiatial hernia so I can not speak first hand on the topic, only copy info I have read. Wish I knew more and had a bit more to offer, sorry.

its not that expensive depending on where you live, and if you want to get back to your regular life/sport as soon as possible i suggest doing a laparoscopic surgery, takes one day stay in the hospital or even as an outpatient procedure depending on recovery, and within two to three weeks you'll be back in the game...

Hiatal Hernia repair - recently I had surgery to repair a Paraoesophageal hernia. The following notes were written by the surgeon whom has moved to an unknown hospital and I can not contact. I am wondering if you can tell me whether or not the surgeon has used a mesh in the repair or simply just sutured it. He writes - Two 2-0 Prolene sutures to close diaphram with pledgets. One suture anteriorly. Snug closure over 52 Fr bougie. Redo 360 wrap with three 2-0 Novafil sutures. Hemostatis intact.

Hi , I had a hiatus hernia ( sliding) and am in recovery (4th month) after key hole surgery for repair to the hernia. I had the hiatus hernia for the 10 years and suffered all of your mentioned symptoms. It got to the point where I was getting hard stomach pains ( felt like I was punched in the stomach) and felt like I wanted to vomit. I took over my life and I was afraid of eating so many foods.

ve developed a hiatel hernia since the surgery and my reflux is worse than before the surgery. I did not have a hiatel hernia before the tif procedure. He wants me to undergo the Nissen Fundoplication now. Has anyone else had issues like this after the TIF procedure? I'm only 23, I'm 5'7'' and I weigh 135 pounds so he told me before I was the ideal candidate for this procedure.

My 1.5 years old baby got admitted in hospital to have a Hernia surgery done. The insurance company rejected the claim saying it falls under congenital external disease. First of all this condition was not there at all during the baby's birth and was only detected one month back before the surgery was done, secondly I am not sure how a Hernia can be considered as an external disease.

I had a hernia repair on April 8, 2014. I haven't been the same since. (2) days after the surgery I broke out in a horrible rash., blister, I look like I was severely sunburned on my feet, abdominal area and hand. It hurt, itched and burned so bad I couldn't stand it. My (2) day hospital stay turned into to (7) being put on a high dose of IV steroids. When finally released from the hospital the consulting dermatologist sent me home on high dose of steroids, tapering down.
