See Doctor: Depending on how the repair was done the doctor can tell you when to start exercise, therapy and then be active in sports.

Depends: While it may depend somewhat on the type of repair done, most hernia experts worldwide have their patients return to normal activity after groin her is repair as tolerated by pain and discomfort. The best thing however is to ask your surgeon for recommendations about your specific case. Best of luck!
