My 8 year old have swollen on the right side of the belly button.

May need vsit: This may have started as a bug bite but sounds like it may have triggered a big reaction or been invaded by germs. Hernias occur around the belly button but they are generally central, not off to the side. If it is warm and or has drainage the doc may need to treat it.
