Can I fly with a femoral hernia if my surgery is scheduled for November 2nd but my flight is on October 18th
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
It's generally advisable to wait a period of time after surgery before flying, and that time frame can vary depending on the type of surgery and individual recovery. Given that your femoral hernia surgery is scheduled for November 2nd and your flight is on October 18th, you should consult with your surgeon before flying.the timing to fly after hernia surgery varies based on the surgical method and individual recovery, and open surgery may require several weeks. Your surgeon can assess your specific situation and provide tailored guidance on when it's safe for you to fly.
