I have a 12mm umbilical hernia that makes my belly look bloated and fat all the time. I don't want surgery and am already doing diet and yoga. Are there any medications that can cure this hernia? I'm based in Chandigarh.

I'm a woman with an umbilical hernia and I'm trying to decide between open or laparoscopic surgery which one would be better for me? I've heard recovery times and risks can vary, so I'm a bit nervous about picking the right option. What factors should I consider when choosing between the two?
Open Surgery: Recovery usually takes longer, with a typical healing period of four to six weeks. Patients may experience more discomfort initially. Laparoscopic Surgery: Recovery is generally quicker, often allowing patients to resume daily activities within two weeks.
