Incisional Hernia Recovery

[The_Burg]

Hi, just out after a rather large hernia repair. Seems to be lots of conflicting advise regarding how much or little to do after.
I'm using a binder and pain is fairly moderate when doing nothing. Walking also fairly minimal pain.

Some seem to suggest do as much as possible as long as it isn't too painful.

Generally I keep fairly fit. 2km daily swimming, 3 5km runs and as much cycling as fits around life weekly.

Anyone been through this? Can post photos of wound but may be considered somewhat gruisome.

Thanks.
