i’m an 18yr old girl with a big problem.I have an umbilical hernia(bellybut.
Q:i’ve had it since i was born but it ought to have gotten smaller by now and disappeared altogether.It really disturbs me when choosing clothes because i cant wear small or thin tops and always have to wear a light additional top as well in all seasons.I’m really cute and this sets me off and makes me loose my courage and esteem.Does anyone out there know any natural method i can use to completely rid myself of it?If so,PLEASE share.

I have one myself, several years now. Occured sometime after lung transpalnt surgery. My doctor has told me that it is only a problem if it strangulates my intestines, otherwise don’t worry. Since you are also worried about your appearance, you may want to look into surgical repair, that’s the only way to remove one. A good surgeon can do this with minimal scar and can even hide the scar in your belly button. No natural way i know of MY SON HAD THE SAME THING WHEN HE WAS BORN AND THE DOC BASICALLY SAID THAT IT WOULD NEVER GO AWAY, THE ONLY WAY IT WOULD WAS WITH SURGERY. LUCKILY MY PARENTS ARE BOTH CRISTIANS. MY MOTHER SAID A PRAYER WHEN HE WAS STILL A BABY AND ONE DAY MY SON JUST WOKE UP WITHOUT IT. IT WENT AWAY! HE IS NOW 10 YEARS OLD AND I HAVE TOLD HIM THE STORIES AND SHOWED HIM THE PICTURES AND HE IS JUST AMAZED. THIS HAS MADE HIS FAITH IN GOD MUCH STRONGER. GOOD LUCK. Can it not be surgically removed? I don’t know, but mad heads understand $h!t like that. Don’t stress over rearranging your life to cover it up.
I thought they perform surgery to remedy that if it doesn’t go away on its own.. See a doctor. You don’t want to be messing around with things like that on your own.Personally, i dont feel that it’s really necessary to make such a big fuss about it, it’s a unique quirk of yours and quite a lot of people think personal quirks are cute. They give people identity, and a sort of humanity that you don’t get when you look at a “flawless” person.
Home treatment is not appropriate for an umbilical hernia. Folk remedies, such as strapping a coin over the hernia or using a band or a strap to try to make it smaller, do not help and may even make the problem worse, such as by causing an infection. Call your Dr. and talk to him about how you feel and what can be done. If it is that bothersome then just have the surgery to fix it, do it now when your still young. Surgical correction is the only way to eliminate this hernia. Go and see a hernia specalist so it is done right the first time, and this will reduce your chances of problems later on.
