Thanks to a nasty bout with the cold/flu season and its accompanying fits of violent coughs, I reinjured a hernia that was repaird 17 years ago. That surgery was in the winter. Has anyone had summer hernia surgery and what was their recovery time? This is a low hernia just below my beltline.

depends on how much of your intestine is trapped and if itīs inflamed or not.
but at least 14 days.

my boy (16y) had this a few weeks ago.
2 weeks no sports and the first week more or less only lying in bed.
a teenager who loves sport grounded for 14 days - that was hell;)
