If you notice a hernia (or bulge), it is best to see your doctor to determine the appropriate course of action. For adults, very small umbilical hernias that do not cause symptoms are often watched, but in adult umbilical hernias that become painful or increase in size are surgically repaired. The surgery can be a minimally invasive repair or open repair.
