Does it reduce?: Reducing a hernia means pushing it back in. If this is done easily you can probably leave it alone. Hernia's of this sort become problematic when: 1 It becomes painful 2 Cannot be reduced 3.Becomes progressively larger 4.Seem to be causing other abdominal symptoms. Best advice - see your doctor and if any of the above are evident, have him/her refer you to a surgeon
