Hi, I am a 25 years old female. I am very confused and worried about a para umbilical hernia that I have since 2018. It was initially said to be benign and my choice to fix, and my current doctor isn?t worried about it, but I am worried it is being underestimated. I think it may be incarcerated as the small ball is firm and does?t disappear on palpation, which was also neglected by my doctor. I also heard that umbilical hernias are most of the time harmless, but have also been reading online that they have a very high risk of strangulation since the defect is often small. I am very confused and worried that it suddenly strangulates. Here are images url/a/bwpe2nx.
