Surgery is only necessary if the hernia is problematic. They normally go away on their own and the doctor will probably try to avoid surgery if its not serious.
My daughter has had an umbilical hernia for 4 years and it simply looks like an "Outtie" belly button.
I have been told by doctors, nurses, etc. that I only need to worry about it if it:
1. Turns a different color than normal (purple, blue, bright red, etc.)
2. Gets larger or doesn't retract when child's at rest
3. The usual - problems eating, inability to poop, and serious complaints from child
In a child needs the surgery, it will be postponed until 3-4 years of age.
The hernia has definitely reduced in size and is less prominent than previous years-which is the preferred method of treatment by a pediatrician.
Yes. It's a very simply key-hole procedure.

Can you get an umbilical hernia twice? I had an umbilical hernia 29 years ago when I was pregnant with my son. It was repaired at the time but now I feel the same type of pain and wondered if I have another hernia.
Normally this is not required in case of umbilical hernia. But then your doctor is the best judge for you.
no
In most cases, a woman can have normal labor with an umbilical hernia. However, it will be up to the doctor in charge.
An umbilical hernia can be serious if left untreated. The most common symptom of an umbilical hernia is a bulge near the navel. The bulge may become more obvious with coughing or straining. A child will not experience much pain but an adult will likely experience discomfort.

The umbilical hernia is not rare in an 66 years old women. On the contrary it become common as the age advances.
Incarcerated umbilical hernia is not infectious as the condition is not in anyway triggered by infection-bearing microorganism. This condition is a malformation anomaly which can be corrected with surgery.
if your dog is uncomfortable and hurts the dog take the dog to the vets they will tell you if it is a hernia or not. The most common hernia is located at the umbilical area and is called an umbilical hernia if it is he/she might need surgery and it is common with puppy's
