What is the difference between open surgery and laparoscopic surgery? By Dr. Iraniha

[@ChristineKotansky]

Good morning Dr. I had a robotic laparoscopic Spigelian hernia repair with mesh on Monday. Is it normal to have stabbing, burning, pulling pain in the area of the repair when getting up and moving around? I’m scared. My incisions seem to be healing fine. It’s this discomfort that’s still pretty strong when getting up after 6 days almost. Any feedback would be helpful.
