Default FHO fix and Hernia removal in 1 day :(

My poor Mya...about 6 weeks ago Mya had FHO surgery...she went in for her checkup today and the vet was concerned bc she still wasn't fully using her leg. After reviewing a new x-ray, it turned out that the bone had splintered and there was a piece blocking the hip from sliding into place. So she had to go into surgery again...

well at the beginning of the appointment, I pointed out a lump Mya had on her belly...an umbilical hernia....I have her home now, and she has 2 incisions with staples

After the first surgery i thought it was bad with the one hip incision but now she has one on her tummy too ...her quivers finally stopped, I am sure she is in pain she is on pain meds but I just feel awful...

Does anyone have any experience with umbilical hernia surgery? And have any advice about the recovery? She is 10 months old and we think it herniated during the accident that fractured her hip when she was playing outside as that's when I noticed it.

They are expecting a full recovery really quick on her hip because of that piece removed that was causing so much discomfort sigh but her poor pink tummy
