A member asked:

Endoscopy showed mild gastritis. what is causing tender pain by the navel area?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Could be a hernia: the umbilicus or navel area is far below the stomach where you have the gastritis. It may be that you have a hernia and that should be evaluated by a surgeon.
