Mine was not painful at all and didn't stop me from any type of training, however my Dr. told me most hernias are not a big deal "but an umbilical hernia can kill you" so I thought I would go ahead and get it done. I think I was in the gym 3 or 4 days later. I think it was suggested a couple weeks off.... but you know how we are.
I have a hernia.

I'd get it fixed. I had one where the intestine was actually poking through and left a black and blue mark. They didn't waste any time getting it taken care of and told me it could cause death. LOL Unfortunately for me, the surgeon wasn't that great. He chose to make the incision through old scar tissue (gall bladder) and it looks like shit. To make matters worse, the mesh fucking migrated. Now they have commercials where you can sue for it. Either way, I'd get it taken care of if I were you.Comment

I thought it would get worse faster than it has. I noticed it more than 2 years ago and it's still pretty small. Actually, it's gotten a little smaller. I could push it back in and feel air gurgling in it. Now I can barely tell it's there.
I looked up to see if they go away, it says they can but usually in kids that are still growing.
