An umbilical hernia itself typically does not cause swollen lymph nodes. However, if the hernia becomes incarcerated or strangulated, it could lead to infection or inflammation, potentially triggering a response in nearby lymph nodes. In such cases, swollen lymph nodes may occur as part of the body's immune response to the complication. If you experience swollen lymph nodes along with signs of a hernia, it's important to consult a healthcare professional.
