Umbilical Hernia?: Intolerable abdominal pain is an emergency. When ever a doctor hears this complaint it is either get to my clinic right now or go to the emergency room. This forum is great, but you need to be seen in person today.

Get a medical check: Pain around the belly button, if severe and persistent can be caused by appendicitis. If it does not settle down quickly you should go see your doctor right away. If you have any nausea/vomiting or fever, then it is an emergency and you should head to the hospital quickly.
