I can't perform any weightlifting for at least 6 weeks. This statement by the adolescent indicates that the client understands the instructions.

Weight lifting puts strain on the incision and should be avoided for at least 6 weeks. After uncomplicated hernia surgery, activities such as bicycling, physical education, and soccer are contraindicated for approximately 3 weeks. Refraining from these activities during this time will prevent stress on the incision and promote healing. However, clients should not participate in these activities until directed by a surgeon.

A hernia occurs when tissue, such as a piece of intestine, protrudes through a weak abdominal muscle. It can swell and become painful, especially when coughing, bending over, or lifting heavy objects. However, many hernias do not cause pain. Hernias are not always dangerous.

An inguinal hernia can be repaired with surgery that pushes the bulge back into place and increases the weakness of the abdominal wall. Surgery is usually recommended if you have a hernia that causes pain, severe or persistent symptoms, or if you have serious complications.
