Yes, umbilical hernias are often congenital, meaning they are present at birth. They occur when the abdominal muscles fail to close completely around the umbilical cord during foetal development. Most umbilical hernias resolve on their own by the age of 3-4 years.
Umbilical hernias are typically not cancerous. However, if you notice any unusual changes in the appearance or size of the hernia, it is essential to consult a doctor for further evaluation.
After umbilical hernia surgery, keeping the incision area clean and dry is essential. Follow your doctor’s instructions regarding pain medication and feeding. Avoid exposing the incision to excessive moisture or pressure and monitor your child for any signs of infection.
During umbilical hernia surgery, you will be under anaesthesia and not experience any pain. After the surgery, you may experience some discomfort or mild pain at the incision site, but this can be managed with pain medication.
In some cases, small umbilical hernias that do not cause any symptoms may be managed conservatively without surgery. However, it is essential to regularly monitor the hernia and consult with a doctor to ensure it does not grow or cause any complications.
Umbilical hernias larger than 1.5 centimetres in diameter usually require surgical intervention. However, the decision for surgery is based on various factors such as the patient’s symptoms, risk of complications, and overall health.
Anyone with a diagnosed umbilical hernia is eligible for surgery. However, it is essential to consult a surgeon to assess your health and determine if surgery is the best option.
Common symptoms of umbilical hernia include a bulge or swelling near the belly button, discomfort or pain at the site, and occasional nausea or vomiting. In some cases, the bulge may disappear when lying down. Some people with umbilical hernia may not experience any symptoms. However, if they notice a bulge or swelling near the belly button or if there is discomfort or pain in the area, it is important to seek a diagnosis and treatment from a doctor.
The duration of umbilical hernia surgery varies based on the complexity and size of the hernia. The surgery can usually be done within 30-60 minutes.
Before undergoing umbilical hernia surgery, your doctor may ask you to undergo specific tests such as blood and imaging studies. You may also need to stop taking certain medications and avoid eating or drinking for a few hours before the surgery.
After umbilical hernia surgery, you will be advised to take it easy for a few days and avoid strenuous activities. Your doctor may give you pain medication and recommend wearing a supportive abdominal binder.
The success rate of umbilical hernia surgery is generally high, with most patients experiencing complete resolution of symptoms. The success rate depends on various factors such as the patient’s overall health, the size of the hernia, and the surgeon’s expertise.
The recovery time for umbilical hernia surgery varies from person to person. The average patient can be seen resuming their normal activities within 2-4 weeks. However, following your doctor’s post-operative instructions is vital for a smooth recovery.
A general surgeon usually performs umbilical hernia surgery. They have the expertise to diagnose and surgically repair the hernia.
The condition of umbilical hernia occurs when the intestine or fatty tissue protrudes through a spot in the abdominal muscles around the belly button. It appears as a bulge or swelling under the skin.
