Not a big deal. I had one a couple of years ago (age 36). A left Inguinal to be specific. The surgery was quick. however when the nurse makes you get out of bed to pee before you go home, ouch! Recovery was remarkably quick. Day 1 forget about doing anything but sleeping, day 2 a little better - can walk around a little, day 3 can get outof bed and move freely, but still sore. I had my procedure on a Friday and was back to work on Monday. I am a editor so I don't have the most physically strenuous of jobs so your mileage may vary. The Norco they give you to numb the pain is incredible stuff.

Good luck and I hope you have a speedy recovery!
