Umbilical hernia: leave as is?
I have an umbilical hernia. I went to see the doctor and he said that I could leave it as is and to come back if it gets worse.
However I’ve been restricting myself on ab workouts. I used to love pushing myself to the max and now that I can’t it’s kind of demotivating me.
I’ve read that some people really regretted the operation, mentioning continuing pain and even getting mesh removed.
I’d like to get some lived experiences here, did you get the operation? Did you leave it as is? Do you work out with it?
