Is sex safe with an umbilical hernia?

Hernia activity: Activities with a hernia should be limited by discomfort. If you experience pain at the site of a hernia, it would be prudent to discontinue whatever activity you are doing.

Probably : Small size and reducible -- definitely safe . If big or stuck you may want to have a dr. Look at it first. not really too much risk, just possible pain or discomfort. .
