How long does hernia surgery take? What kind of remedy to cure high blood presure can one take b4 surgery?


Question:


Answers:
Depends on the type of hernia. If its inguinal (probably, lump in the groin?), its day case (unless you are a high risk patient). It could be done under a local anaesthetic too. Takes about 30mins, surgeon depending. You will be up and about inside a day, & home that evening if all is ok (unless it is on the private!!!)
Discuss medications with your GP, you don't want to get there and be sent away by an unhappy anaesthatist. ACEI's are ok though (whic you are probably on), captopril or ramapril??
