Can you help me get a medical certificate stating I can't travel because of health issues or surgery I lost a lot of money on my flight tickets and need this to claim a refund

If you have valid reason then you will definitely receive a certificate. Visit a nearby physician and get your self examined.

View allI'm a 28-year-old male with a 4.7 mm umbilical hernia. I feel slight pain near my belly button but no other symptoms like constipation. How long might it take for the hernia to grow bigger? Should I consider surgery now or is it okay to wait for several years?
In your case, with a small umbilical hernia (4.7 mm) and mild pain, it's generally recommended to monitor it closely and consider surgery if it grows larger, becomes more painful, or causes other issues. Umbilical hernias can grow slowly over time, and while some may spontaneously resolve, they are more likely to require surgery in adults

I have a 5mm umbilical hernia and I'm not sure how serious it is do I need surgery for something this small? Can I still do light abdominal exercises or lift my 15-month-old baby without making it worse? Is there any chance it might heal on its own with exercise?
please approach a surgeon in apollo hospital

Was wondering if I should be worried. I had hernia repair surgery on my right side but this past week I've been coughing a lot and now I'm feeling pain on my left side too. Is this something I should be concerned about?
It's not uncommon to experience discomfort or pain on the opposite side after hernia surgery due to compensatory strain. However, persistent pain or new symptoms like coughing could indicate an issue that should be evaluated by your doctor to ensure everything is healing properly. Please consult your healthcare provider for a thorough assessment.
