Patient's question:
I had hernia surgery about 20 days ago and haven't been intimate with my wife since. She's feeling very lonely, and I'm also very eager now. But I'm too scared to do it now, afraid it might not be good for the wound. I want to ask online doctors how long after hernia surgery can one resume sexual activity?Doctor's answer:
You are young, you have a hernia, you had hernia surgery, and after more than 20 days, the surgical incision has already healed completely. You must have had your stitches removed and been discharged. Your body has also made a certain degree of full recovery. Generally speaking, you can have sex two weeks after surgery. You can do some appropriate exercise. If the activity does not interfere with the surgical wound, you can engage in sexual activity. It needs to be implemented gradually, and the intensity is under your own control.
