Q: Bump on stomach

My 10yr old son came to me today and told me to feel his belly. An index finger width above his bellybutton he has a bump that feels like a marble inside his skin. He said he hasnt even noticed it until he just started rubbing his stomach after eating. Is this something I should have him see the doctor over?

Thank you
