Umbilical hernia is fundamentally a surgical disease, and generally, oral medications do not have a corresponding treatment effect. Umbilical hernias mostly occur in infants or mid-aged women who have given birth. Typically, infant umbilical hernias are due to incomplete closure of the umbilical ring or insufficiently strong scar tissue at the navel. When the child cries or engages in vigorous activities, a reducible hernia is likely to form, rarely causing incarceration or strangulation. In adults, umbilical hernias are mostly seen in middle-aged women who have given birth. Pregnant women with abdominal ascites or obesity are also prone to developing umbilical hernias, which are more likely to become incarcerated. In the treatment of umbilical hernias, children under the age of two can generally be monitored with follow-ups. A coin or cardboard larger than the umbilical ring can be used, wrapped and held against the umbilical ring, and fixed with adhesive tape, with most cases resolving spontaneously. For adults with umbilical hernias, surgery is usually recommended as soon as possible.
