Hernia op, when can i get back to driving..?

Hi all, had open surgery to get a hernia repair done in my left groin. Anyone give me any advice when it’s advisable to go back? I’m 4 weeks post-op tomorrow and bored out of my mind sitting about the house, not to mention incap benefit as i did agency work before…

thanks in advance
