Can mild umbilical hernia be cured with Ayurvedic medicine?

Question

Hello doctor,

I had a c-section three years ago. My stomach started bulging, so I visited a doctor and had a sonography. So, I came to know that I have mild umbilical hernia 0.7. If I do proper exercise and follow the Ayurvedic medicine suggested by you, then is this mild hernia curable?

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern. Since you had a C-section, you are likely to develop an incisional hernia, which is a common issue faced post C-sections if proper care is not taken during wound healing. It is not curable with only medicines but it can be preventable from reaching further stages. If you find a center close by that practices postpartum care in Ayurveda then get the following done. Avoid lifting weights and too much physical exertion.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
