DRHC Laparoscopic Hernia Repair Clinic
A generally harmless form of Hernia affecting children
An umbilical hernia is a common disease that occurs when the muscles of the abdominal wall weaken and bulge out. The swelling in the navel area increases when coughing or doing intense muscle exercise, that's why the patient should avoid any activities that increase pressure on the abdomen. Umbilical Hernia can be treated by wearing a truss or applying a bandage to reduce pressure on the hernia. If there is a protrusion, the physician may recommend surgery.
An Umbilical Hernia looks like a protrusion of abdominal contents, usually peritoneal membrane, abdominal fat, or intestine, through a weakness in the abdominal wall muscles in the navel. This defect usually forms at the site of passage of the umbilical cord through the muscles of the abdominal wall in fetal life.
