Suggest Treatment For Painful Swollen Knot In The Navel Area

I have a scare on my upper belly button from where I had it pierced and it reject. I ve had the scar for awhile now with no problems but a few days ago I started getting a sharp pain right under neath it and now it has swollen and feels like a knot. It hurts anytime I bend, move that part of my stomach, or touch it. What could it be?
