Depends: Depends on the type of hernia and the type of repair. I usually tell patients with a laparoscopic hernia repair to return to normal activities as tolerated by pain. After some types of abdominal wall reconstruction, i tell patients to limit heavy abdonal straining for 6 weeks. Check with your surgeon to be sure for your case. Good luck!
