A member asked:

Having pain above my belly button for 3 days now. it feels like a stomach ache. it has moved to under my belly button and a little bit on the right. ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Belly-button pain: Belly-button (umbilical) pain may originate locally due to infection or herniation, or be "referred" from another abdominal location like the appendix. Signs/symptoms of concern include: local redness ; drainage, umbilical bulging that can't be reduced with gentle pressure, fever, vomiting, change in bowels, generalized abdominal tenderness (suggests peritonitis), worsening pain. Pls get checked.
