Accepted Answer

Monitor situation: The midline near the navel is a common site for a ventral hernia to form. This is when deeper abdominal contents poke through layers to more superficial skin. As long as the bulge goes back in occasionally &amp; does not become trapped/give pain there is no immediate risk. As a USA based site we have no access to or information about your local docs.
