Banditiff 51 Posted November 29, 2012 I know that they say it takes longer to heal after lapband if you had a hernia repair. . .but how much longer? Tomorrow will be 2 weeks post-op and my back is giving me the BLUES! I'm in the car waiting on my boys to get out of school and I'm in some pretty awful pain!

Maddysgram 6,159 Posted November 29, 2012 I had hernia repair with my LBS and healed the same as not having a hernia. My Dr said the swelling from the surgery itself would be the worst for 48 hrs. Is this pain worse after you eat? I don't think your pain is from hernia repair. You need to call your Dr and ask them about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It will get less frequent but if you exert yourself it will be back. I was banded 10/5. After 2-3 weeks I didn't feel it constantly but if I overdo it it reminds me that this is healing time!

kyrasgrandma 228 Posted November 30, 2012 I had a hernia repair the same time as my lapband and it healed pretty quickly. I had very little pain after surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
