General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
Thanks for your query.
It is already 9 months post -surgery.
You can practically do every activity you want, if there is no incision hernia or so.
There should not be any problem. Of course do not start heavy activities on day one. Gradually resume to the maximum heavy work you can / your body allows.
I find this answer helpful
