What Is The Treatment For Stabbing Pain Near The Belly Button?
I have sharp stabbing pain to the right of my belly button and its very uncomfortable. Ive had it since I woke up and its gotten worse throughout the day. Movement makes it worse and so does coughing and sneezing. No matter what position I sit or lay in it is not comfortable. I have a history of ovarian cysts, but this feels different. What could it be?

Hello,
The symptoms can be related to many medical conditions.
It can be related to an ovarian cyst or also bloating.
I recommend doing an abdominal ultrasound to confirm the cause of the pain.
Meanwhile, I suggest using a spasmolytic such as Buscopan to relive the pain.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
