Suggest Treatment For Painful Knot On Belly Button
When my boyfriend lays down he can feel what he says is a knot from his stomach to his belly button, he said it hurts when he pushes down on it, and tight when he stands up. Do you have any idea what this possibly could be. He said he has had it for a couple of weeks.
Hi, From history it seems that he might be having starting of umbilical hernia or some grannuloma in umbilicus. Consult surgeon and get examined. After proper diagnosis, plan of treatment can be decided. Ok and take care.
