re: Umbilical Hernia, Any of You Ever Had One?

My husband did many years ago. Orthoscopic surgery wasn't bad .. was in hospital for a few hours and then home. Think itw as on a Friday. He went to mass on Sunday and just laid low. I remember he took pain meds for maybe two days because I didn't want him to hurt. Then I switched to Tylenol and he didn't even realize.

Worst part was no lifting for ~6 weeks ... his job requires a good bit of it but his employees handled all of it.
