Can a truss help a hernia heal?
My son is 17 and in good health otherwise. He has a small pea sized hernia in his belly button. Went to doctor yesterday and said possible surgery but for now a truss. There was no protrusion yesterday and now today a small pea sized, before you could feel it by pushing in just a little and now you can see it on surface. He has no pain or other symptoms at all. This has been going on for a week. There was an intern in the dr office and he pushed really hard all around the belly button yesterday not sure if that has anything to do with it being visible now? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
