What Does Abdominal Pan And Bleeding From Navel Indicate?
Hi. I am a 56 year old female in good general health.
I had bariatric surgery 15 months ago.
I am now encountering upper left abdominal pain when NOT eating and am also experiencing slight bleeding from my belly button.
Any advice???

Hi .
I would have been happy to know : which type of bariatric surgery was done.
The bleeding from the belly button may be due to granulaoma formation.
The pain in left side of abdomen when not eating can be due to ulcer formation.
I Would advise such a patient to undergo upper GI endoscopy to find out the cause to plan for proper management.
