What Causes A Hard Abdominal Lump?

Hello, I have a hard lump under my belly button. It s hurt really bad when I touch it. I notice the inside of my belly button is really dry and I can push it out do to the knot underneath. Any suggestions on what it may be or what I may need to do? I currently don t have health insurance so doctors visits are expensive for me. Thank you.

Hello,

You need an ultrasound of that area. It might be a lipid lump which needs nothing or a hernia which needs surgery.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
