How Can Throat Inflammation And Vigorous Coughs Everyday Be Managed 8 Months After A Bilateral Hernia Surgery?
Question: Hello there I had bilateral hernia surgery eight months ago. I have a throat inflammation in the last week. This week, there are an average of more than ten vigorous coughs every day. Some pain appeared near the left groin. Now the throat is full. I would like to ask: 1. Complete hernia surgery for eight months. Is the location of hernia enough to withstand the coughing about ten times a day this week? 2. If there is another cough. Press the left and right groin positions with my hand. Does it help reduce the impact of coughing?
Brief Answer:
Yes, hernia surgery can withstand this cough at 8 months.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
1. After 8 months of hernia surgery, all internal healing has taken place completely and it can withstand ten vigorous coughs a day.
2. Pressing groin areas with the hand can reduce the impact of cough to little extent by supporting ligaments.
I am still in favor of getting cough under control as early as possible.
Hope I have answered your query. I wish you fine recovery.
