Hi,
It depends on which reading you are having and other risk factors like age, hernial status, etcetera. Otherwise that part of worry will be taken care of by physician and anesthetic during and after surgery. So if they say it's OK then let them handle.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Bhadresh Lakhani
