Asymptomatic Umbilical Hernia

Mine definitely wasn’t asymptomatic but I felt it mostly when recieving significant pressure at the belly button but not so much, really, during exercise.

I had surgery almost 9 years ago.

From an appearance standpoint, it seemed to, eventually, “re-emerge” but I’ve not felt it during any lifting. I believe a certain degree of scar tissue eventually filled in the area, post-surgery, to protect it-if that’s possible.

The only immediate issue (post surgery) was the extreme soreness not so much, apparently, from the incision but more over-stretching of the muscle fibers in the region. I’m told they take rods, in some cases, to pull apart, temporarily, the local ab. fibers in order to work inside of that temporary gap.

Thanks for the response

When you state that it re-emerged do you believe/know this to be a result of scar tissue or re-herniation?
