Patient's question:
Abdominal hernia with a membrane in the middle, what should I do? Do I need to go to the hospital for treatment? If treated, how long does it take to heal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, based on your description and the observation of symptoms, it is considered to be caused by an umbilical hernia. The child's condition can be treated conservatively with a hernia belt for observation. If it is ineffective, surgical treatment may need to be considered. This situation belongs to an umbilical hernia. The hernia in your child is very mild. How many months old is your child now? Umbilical hernias generally do not require treatment and usually heal on their own by the age of 1-2 years. The mild protrusion in your child may heal even faster. Please do not worry, just observe more.
