UMBILICAL HERNIOPLASTY

The procedure can usually be done on an outpatient basis, meaning the patient can go home the same day. Recovery time varies, but most patients can return to their normal activities within a few weeks, following post-operative care instructions.

Umbilical hernia repair is a common and generally safe procedure. It helps prevent complications such as pain, discomfort, and the risk of the hernia becoming trapped (incarcerated) or strangulated (blood supply cut off), which can be serious. However, like any surgery, there are potential risks and the outcome can vary based on individual circumstances
