Good description. This was spot on for my experience and I am about 5 days out with the same type of surgery - open mesh repair. I watched your later videos too and it is comforting to see your progress. At the moment the most difficult thing for me is the stabbing pain I get when moving around. I am really looking for that to taper off a bit. Thanks for sharing though. It is reassuring to see.

Great video, I had mine 5 years ago. It was definitely hard being mobile again but it gets better as time goes by and best part is that the scar is very tiny in comparison to the size it was my first two videos

Thanks for the videos watched them before my op, and everything you mention was spot on.
Great job adds confidence to the whole experience
Cheers for sharing

I had my surgery yesterday and I'm miserable, the first 8 hours were terrible, a lot of pain, more than I was expecting, it's getting better though.

I had my operation done yesterday, and my scrotum is totally swollen, is that normal and did you also face that? If yes how long did it took you to recover?

Thanks for sharing the video I am 2 days post op and I have some pain getting up and walking but I have pills for the pain. In day 7 how was the pain.? Was it all gone or it was still around.?
