Hernias

A small bulge on my lower abdomen. I could feel it, though it wasn't painful and it didn't get too bad before I had it repaired.

I had surgery at 7am and was home by 10am. They made a 2" cut and put a "boot" inside...like we used to do on the old style tube tires. I was up and around the same day, healed within a week and doing everything except heavy lifting. That had to wait about a month.
