Hello!

Thank you for the query.

This lumps are most likely caused by umbilical hernia. Due to small hole in the abdominal wall fatty tissue gets out from the abdominal cavity. It may give pain if the fat stuck in the hernia.
I suggest you to consult a surgeon with it. Ultrasound can be done to confirm it.
Surgery is necessary to fix it.

Hope this will help.
Regards.
