What Could Cause Painful Lump On Belly Button?

I have a small ball or lump above my belly button. And I get it after eating usually or sometimes just out of nowhere. It gives me such a horrible pain that I can t even move. Other times it just shows up and I don t realize until I feel my stomach. I push on it and it goes away but makes a sound as if air was bieng released out of a balloon that had a small amount of water, at times when I do this my stomach hurts really bad and I feel as if I want to throw up! What exactly could this be? Is it something,to worry about?

Consult surgeon and get examined.
Avoid constipation and cough reflex.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
