A member asked:
Is it normal for your stomach to feel hard near belly button?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: If your stomach was soft before but now is hard in that area, it is not normal for you. You may have lipoma under your skin there in your abdomen or you may have a hernia through your belly button (umbilical hernia) See your doctor for an exam.
