A member asked:
I have a swollen area in the middle but below my breasts. it suddenly appeared, and there is no pain yet. what could this be?

Could be: epigastric hernia, if you are sure that this was acute onset. Show it to your doctor to be sure. If it is something that had been there but not noticed before, it could be something else.
