Hi. Thanks for your query. The causes of pain in the belly button and the area above can be infection in the area called Umbilical granuloma or can be an obstructed hernia. Pull on the intestine or the omentum can cause pain in the other side of the abdomen or due to associated colitis..
I would advise you the following:" get a physical examination done by a Surgeon as this can be a serious problem like obstructed hernia which needs urgent surgery.
