I ve been told I have a belly button hernia and another to the right of it. My Dr. said the one on the right is not likely to cause a problem. I m feeling pain and extension in that area as well as above the belly button. Could it be something else flaring?
Hi, thank-you for providing the brief history of you. As you have hernia this could be leading to pain as the inflammation could have arose. Undergoing physical therapy should help you. A hernia is bulging of an organ or tissue through an abnormal opening. So to correct the muscle patterns there will help reduce the hernia tissue. Also, the pain will subside. In my clinical practice most cases with hernia respond well to physical therapy and doesn't need surgery. Regards Jay In Chat Doctor.
