I am three months post-op of an unexpected epigastric hernia repair surgery. One of the most frustrating things about my recovery period was the lack of information on rehabilitation. I simply wasn't given much information from the hospital other than "don't lift anything heavy for 6 weeks". Covid has further complicated things; I was discharged less than 10 hours after my surgery and the only follow-up I had was a telehealth call with the surgeon 6 weeks later.
So, I created my own program for rehabilitation. If you'd like a copy of the protocol I created and followed for gentle core rehab, click here! (Full disclaimer, this is not medical advice. As a kinesiologist, I am trained to give instruction on exercise but always ask your doctor or surgeon before starting a new exercise program).
