Beware of the belly button in pregnancy!

Women and men, one in every 20 people are facing the wall of the belly at a time of their life. But pregnancy le triggered core hernia are more common in women than in men.

Neolife Medical Center General Surgery Specialist Op. Dr. Hamdi Koçer "The umbilical gland emerges with weakening of the ring in the umbilicus and becomes even more evident when the pressure on the abdomen increases pressure. Most of the herniated hernias are so small that the patient is unaware, but over time they start to grow and reach a size of an orange from a nut size. "

Hereditary hernias occur most often in women during pregnancy or become noticeable during this period. As pregnancy progresses, hernia grows with increasing intraabdominal pressure.

Koçer, "Later in pregnancy as the mother's belly grows belly hernia grows and becomes obvious. When the navel hernia begins to grow, surgery is inevitable at the hands of the patient. However, unfortunately hernias sometimes seem to be a minor, simple disease. Even occasionally, during the cesarean section, we see cases where the patient is interfered with the umbilical cord by two or three sutures by the doctor following the pregnancy of the patient, and herniated hernias are not restored by such a correct method and they are recurring by 25-50%. These hernias are even turning into giant hernias that have recurred 2-3 times, "and advises patients to intervene during her cesarean section and apply for an experienced general practitioner for correct treatment.

If the herniated hernia is too small, it must be repaired with patch!

The herniated hernia, repaired by suture, tears like a canvas and always faces the patients as a larger hernia. Each suture cuts the tissues and causes a new hernia. For this reason, it is extremely important for the health of the patient to be treated by specialist surgeons for herniated hernias.
