A member asked:

Will my abdomen ever be as strong as it once was after a epigastric hernia surgery or will i always be at increased risk of it opening again?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Allow at least 2 months and the abdominal musculature should have full strength. However, the surgeon who performed the operation and examined the patient's abdomen in follow-up is best to answer this question for each individual patient.
