Navel hernia, is never dangerous

The healing of the navel should be monitored by the pediatrician. When the wound disappears, it is not uncommon to be a slight bulge. If so, is due to an umbilical hernia.

This is not dangerous, does not strangle ever, and produces no discomfort. The only problem it presents is the aesthetic. However, if too large or increases, should be operated when the child is between two and four years.
