Incisional Hernia

‎04-28-2012 03:31 PM

My Dad has an incisional stomach hernia from surgery about a year ago. Because of his age and the notorious poor results, the mesh surgery is not recommended. He wears a truss which is very uncomfortable. Sleeping is very difficult. He is also about 50 lbs overweight. Any info you can give me would be appreciated. Do you avoid certain foods ? Eat only at certain times ? Will losing weight help relieve pressure on the hernia ? What do you use to contain the hernia ? Thanks for any and all info.
