Recent surgery?: If your surgery was recent ( within the past month), you will gradually improve over the next few weeks. If it has been a while, you need to be checked promptly to made sure there is no slippage/ reherniation, mesh erosion, or other complication.

Complex: It depends on when you had the operation. You hold direct any questions directly to your surgeon. If the answers are no satisfactory, ask for recommendations about a a second opinion from someone with extensive experience with hiatal hernia repair.
