Hi Pul,
Thanks for posting your query.
You are most likely suffering from acute pancreatitis with "Grey-Turner" and "Cullen" sign.
You should go for serum Amylase and serum Lipase test.
You should also go for CT/ MRI scan abdomen for confirmation.
You should also consult with physician.
Get well soon,
Dr. Mayank
