Although parents become very concerned when they find out that their child has been diagnosed with umbilical hernia, there is virtually no reason to be worried about. Apart from being “in-esthetic”, umbilical hernia raises no major physiological issues. This type of hernia is a mild disorder that doesn’t interfere with the normal development of the child. Umbilical hernia is a post-natal abnormality of the belly button that occurs in more than 10 percent of all babies. This umbilical abnormality is commonly developed by girls and prematurely born infants and it is usually revealed in babies older than 6 months, rarely occurring prior to this age. | | URL: | http://surgery.zersal.com/2008/08/17/misconceptions-about-umbilical-hernia/ | | Category: | Business & Economy: Law | | Link Owner: | koko@hotmail.com | | Date Added: | September 06, 2008 05:07:20 AM | | Number Hits: | 0 |
