Is the recurrence rate high after umbilical hernia is cured?

Umbilical hernia is a kind of hernia with high incidence. Although it is not as harmful to the body as inguinal hernia, it is also very uncomfortable for children. Moreover, umbilical hernia will also affect the digestive system, which is not good for the healthy growth of children. It cannot be underestimated and must be treated. Does umbilical hernia need treatment? Because the navel is the scar tissue left after the umbilical cord falls off, it is an innate weakness in the human body structure, and it is often difficult to resist abdominal pressure. In addition, the baby loves to cry, cough, and dry stool, which leads to an increase in abdominal pressure, which may cause the omentum of the small intestine in the abdominal cavity to protrude from the abdominal wall and form umbilical hernia. Infants and young children are prone to umbilical hernia, which has a lot to do with their incomplete development, as well as their love of crying, coughing, constipation and abdominal distension. The vast majority of patients with umbilical hernia are infants, especially those who are several months old or even less than one month old, and are most likely to get umbilical hernia. The symptoms of umbilical hernia are generally not as serious as inguinal hernia, because it will not fall into the scrotum, will not affect reproductive function, and is not easy to incarcerate, but this does not mean that umbilical hernia is harmless. When umbilical hernia occurs, the small intestine protrudes from the navel and is in an abnormal position. The child's stomach is uncomfortable and the digestive system will be affected. After the digestive system is affected, children often have symptoms such as anorexia, nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite and indigestion. After a long time, nutrition can't keep up, resistance decreases, and even developmental retardation may occur. ? No matter what kind of hernia, it must be treated. Hospitals generally advise parents to do hernia surgery for their children, but most small intestinal hernias can be treated conservatively, especially umbilical hernia. Conservative treatment is very effective and does not require surgery. Umbilical hernia surgery has high risk and recurrence rate, and it will sew the navel into a line, which will affect the appearance. It's really not worth it. Compared with other types of hernia, umbilical hernia is the easiest to treat, and no operation is needed to treat umbilical hernia. Umbilical hernia can be cured safely in the shortest 1-2 courses, and it will hardly recur after treatment, which is the most ideal treatment method.
