Brief Answer:
It is normal for Hernia to get reduced
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
In Hernia, the bulge which is seen from outside is the contents of the abdomen. Most commonly, it will be the small intestine or Omentum which is fat present inside the abdomen.
In the initial stages, the small bowel or Omentum will go inside the abdomen once you lie down. It is called a reducible hernia. It is uncomplicated. In course of time, the contents will not go inside and may go into Intestinal Obstruction.
You have to get operated on as soon as possible as there is no medical treatment for a hernia.
Nothing to worry about.
Hope I answered your query. If you have any questions, I will clarify further
Wish you good health and a speedy recovery
Regards
