What Causes Sharp Pain Right Above Belly Button?
Hi I'm a 20 year old male. I randomly started getting a Sharp pain right above my belly button, and a little to the left sometimes too. It just recently started and it doesn't really hurt but more like uncomfortable because I've never had this happen. Should I be worried?

Hello,
Welcome to HCM.
I am Dr Rakesh Sharma answering your query.
I can understand your concern.
You seem to be suffering from acid peptic dyspepsia.
You should take small frequent diet, plenty of water, and lot of fibers in diet.
avoid spicy food, tea coffee and alcohol.
You can use tablet pantoprazole,empty stomach.
If constipated, take mild laxatives.
If not relieved, an ultra sound will be required, you can see a doctor for the same.
Hope this helps you.
Good luck.
