best bet is to get it checked out and fixed with a mesh. healing time i've heard is anywhere from 6-10 weeks before being back in the gym, a little while longer before you'll be able to go heavy again.

I had 3 umbilical hernia repairs. The doc finally put the mesh in for the third one. I was out of the gym at least 6 weeks. That was 15 years ago and I haven't had another problem since.
