What is the best medicine for hernia?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
The only way to effectively treat a hernia is through surgical repair. However, whether or not you need surgery depends on the size of your hernia and the severity of your symptoms. Your doctor may want to simply monitor your hernia for possible complications. This is called watchful waiting.

I'm really worried because my belly button is sore and there's this clear, thin discharge coming out of it that smells really bad. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol for any discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
