Frequently Asked Questions
Hernias do not heal on their own. The only way to treat a hernia is through surgery, which helps to repair the defect in the abdominal wall or muscle. However, in some cases, if the hernia is small and not causing any symptoms, a doctor might recommend monitoring it closely.
