An umbilical hernia occurs when the opening in the stomach
muscle that allows the umbilical cord to pass through fails to close
completely. Umbilical hernias are most common in babies, according to
the Mayo Clinic, but they can also occur in adults.
African-American babies, premature babies, or babies born at a low birth weight are at an even higher risk of developing an umbilical hernia. There is no noted difference in occurrence between boys and girls, according to Cincinnati Children’s Hospital Center.
An umbilical hernia in adults usually occurs when too much pressure is put on a weak section of the stomach muscles, due to factors including: being overweightfrequent pregnanciesmultiple gestation pregnancies (having twins, triplets, etc.)fluid in the abdominal cavitystomach surgeryhaving a persistent, heavy cough while Liver failure or hepatic insufficiency is the inability of the liver to perform its normal synthetic and metabolic function as part of normal physiology. Two forms are recognised, acute and chronic.
