Sounds like hernia: It sounds like you could have a belly button hernia.This is a weak area in the abdominal wall where your umbilical cord brought nutrients to you as a fetus. The weakness can provide a portal where the intestines or other abdominal contents can push trough & get hung up. See your pcp & have this evaluated. A simple day surgery procedure could fix it if present.
