I had a right hydroceletomy 2 weeks ago.the stitches have now dissolved and the wound is closed.however many doctors reccomend avoiding heavy lifting?

Yes, you may, but...: What you reported strongly suggests the healing after right hydrocelectomy has been adequate. Weight lifting would not affect the incision since there is not much muscle tension to pull incision apart. Of course, some lingering ache may last. So, listen to what the body may speak to you and do not force to prove personal pride. Best to recovery...
