Umbilical Hernia Treatment
Overview:
An umbilical hernia occurs when abdominal contents protrude through the umbilical opening beneath the skin.

Understanding Umbilical Hernia:
An umbilical hernia manifests when abdominal content pushes through the umbilical opening. This opening, known as the umbilicus, is a healed scar in the lower abdomen where the umbilical cord once connected mother and fetus. Post-birth, the umbilical cord is cut and the opening typically closes quickly. However, if it remains open, the intestines may protrude, creating a noticeable bulge, especially when a child coughs, sneezes, or cries.
Natural Resolution:
Most umbilical hernias in young children are not immediately treated with surgery. They often shrink and heal naturally by age three. While some parents might attempt using a coin to hasten healing, this method is not backed by medical evidence and is not recommended.
When Surgery is Necessary:
Surgical intervention may be required if the hernia does not resolve by age three or four, or if it strangles and cuts off blood supply to the protruding tissue. In such cases, prompt surgery is crucial.
Surgical Success:
Umbilical hernia surgery boasts a success rate of 99.99%. Adhering to post-surgery care instructions ensures a smooth recovery.
Conclusion:
Umbilical hernias are generally not dangerous and tend to resolve on their own. However, if complications arise, seek medical advice promptly.
