A. the child is having umbilical hernia which is very common in children and goes away by maximum 2 years of age. with growing age it regresses anxd goes inside it does not require any intervention or treatment before 2 years if it is non complicated. meet your dozctor once who will tell you whether any intervention or wait and watch policy is required.
