A. In many cases, umbilical hernias in infants, especially those as young as two months old, are common and often resolve on their own by the time the child is 1 to 3 years old. Surgery is generally not necessary unless the hernia is large, causing pain, or becomes incarcerated (trapped), which can lead to complications. It's important to monitor the hernia and keep an eye out for any changes or signs of discomfort in your daughter. Consulting your pediatrician is essential; they can assess the hernia's size and condition and provide guidance on whether surgery is needed now or if it's safe to wait. Always follow your doctor's recommendations for the best outcome.
