If someone has an umbilical hernia and surgery is it possible for some of the to be left behind just wondering because l had as a baby now have big lump on side my belly?

It is possible for some of the umbilical hernia to be left behind after surgery, especially if the hernia was large or complex. This can happen for a few reasons, such as:

* The surgeon may not have been able to remove all of the hernia tissue due to its location or size.

* The hernia may have recurred after surgery, meaning that it came back after being repaired.

* The lump on your side may not be related to the umbilical hernia at all.

If you are concerned about the lump on your side, it is important to see a doctor for evaluation. They can determine the cause of the lump and recommend the best course of treatment.
