No they shrink because when i was a child my hernia was really huge and the doctors recommended my father to have a surgery done on me. And when I was fourteen, my doctor asked me to get it done. But now I'm 16, and is going by itself. Is smaller than it was years back.

Hernias do not grow on their own, but they can become larger over time due to increased intra-abdominal pressure. This pressure can cause the hernia sac to bulge more, making the hernia appear bigger. It is important to seek medical advice if you notice any changes in the size of a hernia.
