Hello doctor,My age is 32 years old and I am operated three times for a hernia two times at left-hand side and one on the right side. First, a hernia operated 20 years back and then seven years back. Both are on the left-hand side and last year on the right-hand side. Now, what should I do so that I never get operated again in the future for a hernia?
