Laparoscopic hernia repair is the best procedure but open mesh repair can also be done, recurrence is less than 1% if mesh is used properly, operating time is 1 to 1 and half hours, you have stay in hospital for 1 to 2 days, after this you can do routine work, full recovery may take 10 days.

No operation would guarantee 100% non recurrence. For both sides laparoscopy is advisable, for one side open surgery can be considered. Age is an important factor.
