Infant Umbilical Navel Hernia

The baby is connected to mother with umbilical cord. When the child is born and after the cutting the umbilical cord, there is a small opening in the abdominal muscles that allows the umbilical cord to pass through. As the baby grows after birth, this opening in the abdominal muscles closes. Sometimes, however, these muscles do not meet and grow together completely, and a small opening remains. In this case, intestine or fat pushes through a weak spot or hole. This causes a bulge near or in the belly button, or navel. It may look like your child’s belly button is swollen.

The umbilical hernia occurs in 10 percent to 20% of all babies. It is more noticeable when the baby cries and may become smaller or disappear when the baby is quiet.
When the umbilical hernia remains up to 4-5 years old, the surgery is necessary. Up to this age, conservative treatment with infant umbilical hernia belt AM-PPB 1 with silicone pad is crucial.
