Patient feedback after umbilical hernia surgery
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study looks at how patients feel and function after surgery to fix a small, first-time umbilical hernia (a bulge near the belly button). Your feedback will help doctors understand what matters most to people like you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 75 years old
- Your body mass index (BMI) is between 19 and 35
