Hernias are a weakness of the connective tissue in the lower abdominal region. Problems in hernias can range from a slight abnormal belly protrusion to a strangulation of the intestines. One may notice a bulge or protrusion around the navel area as the most common sign of hernia. Male children can have a hernia in the scrotum. Middle-aged obese people can have lower abdominal or groin hernias.<\/p>\n
Common causes include poor connective tissue health from wrong dietary habits; obesity; and lack of exercise (muscle tone).<\/p>\n
The common fix is surgery, but is not always a permanent solution. This can also have side effects and doesn\u2019t solve the underlying connective tissue weakness problem.<\/p>\n
Natural healing comes when we help the body to correct the connective tissue problem internally and externally. According to homeopathic literature, the body has the ability to repair hernias if they haven\u2019t gone too far. It usually takes 1 to 6 months. Be careful that they don\u2019t strangulate (cut off the intestinal flow).<\/p>\n
