Check for a hernia: strong cough could lead to a lot of muskeloskeletal problem bruise and broken rib is one the other strain muscle that could lead to a hernia have a doctor check your umbilical area for a hernia or potential one that most likely what causing the pain apply heat pad to the area and make sure your bowels are rugular to you do not have to strain any more and make sure you treat what causing the cough
