meet your doctor once who will tell you whether any intervention or wait and watch policy is required.
POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy2 years agoA. An umbilical hernia creates a soft swelling or bulge near the navel. In babies who have an umbilical hernia, the bulge may be visible only when they cry, cough or strain. Umbilical hernias in children are usually painless. Umbilical hernias that appear during adulthood may cause abdominal discomfort.
