I have hernia,can i still mow my lawn? i am waiting one year for surgery! if it pops out more ,wile i cut the grass will that be worse for me ?

Probably ok: That's a long wait. It's ok if the hernia pops in and out. If pain however is limiting your activities, or you have increasing difficulty pushing it back in, call your surgeon and let them know the situation has changed, and become more urgent. They should move you up in that case. Hope this helps!
