A small umbilical hernia might not require immediate surgery, but it can potentially worsen over time without treatment. It could get larger, causing pain, discomfort, or activity limitations. It's also important to be aware of potential complications like incarceration (hernia gets stuck and can't be pushed back in) or strangulation (blood supply to the trapped tissue is cut off).
