What is Umbilical Hernia? Symptoms & Treatment
Umbilical hernia is a common condition where a part of the intestine or abdominal tissue pushes through a weak area near the belly button. It can occur in both adults and children, but in adults, it often needs proper medical attention.
Common causes include obesity, pregnancy, heavy lifting, chronic cough, and increased pressure inside the abdomen. Many people in Bangalore ignore the swelling near the navel until it becomes painful or larger.
