There seems to be a lot of variation to people's response to hernia surgery. Most people do not have severe pain.
I don't know anything about laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair but I'm not sure what the real benefits are. I think a repair that would need a large incision might benefit from a laparoscpic approach. But for a small inguinal hernia repair without mesh, I just don't see how laparoscopy helps much. Are there any surgeons out there? I think member "glowplug" is a surgeon, maybe he'll weigh in.
