I had inguinal open mesh-hernia surgery a year ago. i've gained 10 kgs. would it recur if i do abdominal exercise to reduce my belly. pls advise.

No: While hernias may recur, your activity won't be the cause. Best of luck with weight loss. Remember to eat fewer calories while exercising for more effective weight loss. Hope this helps!
