After how many days of harnia surgury i can take a bath?


Answer:
Hernia repair is surgery to correct a hernia.
A hernia is an abnormal bulging of internal organs, often the intestine, through a weakness in a muscular wall.
Do not take a bath for at least 5 days after the operation. Soaking may separate the skin tapes and the wound could break open.
Sponge bathing for infants and showering for older children are permitted the day after surgery.
The wound tapes should be carefully patted dry after showering.
Expect complete recovery from surgery in about 2 - 4 weeks.
