<p>The Hernia clinic has worked closely over many years with the physiotherapists at Witty, Pask and Buckingham in Northampton and through very careful discussion, research and experience we have developed a day-by-day rehabilitation schedule that covers every type of patient.</p>

<li>Consider returning to work towards the end of this week</li>
<li>Time off work – Allow approximately 1-2 weeks to recover before you can return to work.  If your job includes manual work then you may need to request light duties or have longer off before returning to heavier work.  You will be advised to avoid heavy lifting for 4-6 weeks to reduce the risk of recurrence. You will be provided with a work certificate before you leave the hospital.</li>
