What Causes Tenderness Around Belly Button?

I have bad copd. I have had a cold for a week, with a bad cough. That part has gotten better but I ve had a lot of pain across my stomach especially when I cough. Now my belly button is very tender and the skin around it is hard. I figure I pulled some stomach muscles. Will it go away on its own?

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear welcome to HealthcareMagic
Regarding your experience with pain at the bottom of your belly from previous chonic cough I will suggest this is due to an intra abdominal pressure that is transferred to your lower abdomen

In regards to this I am absolutely sure the pain will resolve spontaneously provided the cough is adequately treated

I hope this helps Regards
I find this answer helpful
