S/p inguinal hernia: How long ago was surgery? lump? 3 weeks post surgery usually returned to normal. Before 3 weeks holding a pillow over site may relieve discomfort , Unlikely that will damage unless a lump appears even if some pain which should resolve in hours. f/u /w /doc http://californiaherniaspecialists.com/faq-hernia-recovery/ http://www.wrh.on.ca/Site_Published/wrh_internet/Document.aspx?Body.Id=72580
