Hi, dear
You may have some paraumbilical hernia. Or you may have some tumour pathology with secondary infection. You should go for examination. If it is hernia then plan for surgery. If it is not hernia then ho for fine needle aspiration cytology or biopsy. Then take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
