What Does A Lump Under The Navel Indicate?

Pea sized lump kinda under belly button, never been pregnant, haven t been doing much lifting, not over weight, and just got off period. It doesn t really hurt unless I stretch my belly a little, or bend a certain way. When I press to the right it feels kinda hard, nothing on the left.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should definitely get done ultrasound examination of abdomen to identify the cause of swelling.
Possibility of hernia is more likely because of the position.
So if hernia is there then you will need surgical repair of hernia.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
