Hello,
Welcome and thanks for your query.
Please upload a picture of the itchy lesions. If you have a heavy manual job and sweat, there lesions could be fungal infections.
As for the lump below your belly button, it may be a small lipoma, firboma or a para-umbilical/umbilical hernia.

Hi so far my body hasent got any marks on from itching. I put the symptoms in Google and it keeps coming up with pancreatic cancer? What's are the chances of it being this? I don't have jandis skin or eyes and my bowel movements are fine and no blood in my urine or semin.
Brief Answer:
Unlikely
Detailed Answer:
Pancreatic cancer can produce obstruction of the bile duct and in such case, there will be itching. But at the same time the person would be jaundiced, would have lost weight and be sick. You don't have these and therefore it is unlikely that you have Pancreatic cancer.
