Is it ok to start upper body exercises 1 year after open cut unguinal hernia surgery.the area is still bit sore and i have ocasonal discmfrt & pain?

Healing: is probably complete after one year. Surgical site will not get any stronger, so you can probably resume normal activity, barring any complication. Consult with your surgeon just to be sure. Occasional discomfort is probably caused by scar tissue.
