A member asked:

Do i have to be nude for a laproscopic umblical hernia surgery?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Why the concern?: You will be under anesthesia and your belly will be exposed, You genitals need not be exposed. If you have any issues, talk to your doctor before surgery. Wish you good health!
