I have a lump maybe the size of a pee an inch up and an inch to the right of my belly button.
Its under the skin and not noticable at all. i just happened to be pushing on my stomach wondering why its so hard and i cant suck it in. And i felt a little pain and noticed something hard.
I am not asking for medical advice just curious if anyone else has had one?
What do you think about it?
I googled it and of course could be a number of things. lol

What can I do next?

I had something just like that for several years. It never bothered me and the doctors weren't worried by it either. It eventually grew to about the size of a nickel and got really red and painful. The doctor said it somehow had become infected and had to lance and drain it (SO gross). It healed and I still have a small scar.

I was born with a hernia above my belly button. Never caused any problems, but it was removed when I was in fifth grade. It was bigger than a pea and protruded slightly but wasn't really noticeable. I would just try to point it out to my doctor at the next regular visit unless the pain continues.
