A member asked:

I have been having constant pain behind my belly button for 8 days now. anyone know what this could be?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Belly pain: You dont give me much information. If this had gone on for 8 days it merits being looked at. See your pcp. It would not be a common sign of common abdominal pain causes. These would be my initial thoughts: lactase deficiency constipation irritable bowel syndrome peptic ulcer urinary tract infection.
