I had hernia surgery on 12-14-12 in the lower groin area with the mesh.The doctor told me not to lift anything heavier than a gallon of milk for 6-8 weeks.I went back to work about 4 weeks ago.I'm an electrician/contractor so I have to lift ladders,rolls of wire,etc.So far,no problems.My biggest problem during the recovery was not being able to do anything.Just about drove me crazy(short ride).Anyway,do what the doctors tell you and you should be fine.Good luck.
