A member asked:
What precautions should you take for hernia of bowel in its infancy stage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See your doctor: Any hernia that has bowel involvement should be evaluated and treated accordingly before is too late. You are taking a risk of getting the bowel twisted (strangulation) which will increase complications after surgery.
