A member asked:
I have a weird sensitive feeling around my navel. whenever something touches the skin there i feel like cringing. what could cause that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sensitive nerves: The sensory nerves on our skin can, at times, become overactive. This can cause sudden sensitivity to touch, numbness, tingling, cold/warm sensation or pain. This typically goes away on its own, but see a physician if it persists or worsens.
