Treatments

Umbilical Hernias among infants

automatically get fixed by the

time they are 3 or 4 years old.

However adults will require

surgery to correct the problem.

Small and medium sized incisional

hernias can be dealt with by laparoscopy

but large incisional hernias might require

open surgery to correct the hernia.
