General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi.
THe burning sensation above the belly button with the stretch marks is suggestive of an inflammatory process going on. This can be due to a small obstructed hernia stretching some nerve or may be an umbilical granuloma .
Confirm this by an examination by a General Surgeon and ultrasonography and get diagnosed and treated accordingly.
