I have seen a surgeon who thinks I have a small inguinal hernia. I am waiting on a scan before operating with a mesh repair. I am also considering having a tummy tuck procedure. Should I have the hernia repair done first and if so how long should I wait to have the tummy tuck procedure following the repair? Or is it possible for the plastic surgeon to repair the hernia at the same time as the tummy tuck operation.
