After the Esophyx procedure there are no limitations on physical activity, but diet is restricted for the first 6 weeks to liquid or very soft foods, to prevent tearing in the area of the fundoplication. After the laparoscopic Nissen, physical activity is restricted from 4-6 weeks to allow the hiatal hernia repair to heal.
