Repair hernia: Hernias of the abdominal wall can remain stable or progress. They are unable to heal spontaneously, or by itself. These hernias can develop complications like incarceration or strangulation, (organs trapped by the hernia defect). Okay to get in to your doc for an eval and surgical referral. A hernia repair is safe and effective.

No : The only "cure" for hernia is a surgical procedure. There are many options however, so make sure you see someone up to date, and someone that is familiar with many options, so you can select the one that fits your goals best.
