Regarding umbilical hernia
After my first pregnancy I got umbilical hernia in 2018. It was normal delivery.
Now I had a c section on 4th July 2021 because of low amniotic fluid and less baby weight and baby's growth stopped at 35
weeks because of placenta issue.
After c section my umbilical hernia is not like before. It is very hard near umbilical area .
Even if iam pushing it back also it is not going before I used to put finger in my umbilical hernia.
Is there any problem with my hernia
Can u please suggest what should I do

If the hernia has become hard and not reducing by self, there is risk of irreducibility, which may land up for emergency hernia repair.
You should consult a Surgeon soon for better clinical evaluation and guidance.
