Pain in navel after injury Posted: 04-08-08 06:38am
Sometime back I kept knocking my stomach,
particularly about my navel, when I walked
through partly closed door. At the same
time I would bounce my new baby niece on
my tummy. A good while after that I
noticed a dull pain that emanated from my
navel. I had it checked out. No growth or
bulges & nothing showed up on the
ultrasound. We thought maybe I tore a
muscle in my abdomen. I learned to live
with it, even doing pilates & losing
weight. The area was tender & would
only bother me during my period or after
intense exercise.
However recently I hit my navel in that
same door and noticed soon after a dark
lump just below my navel. The pain is the
same but a bit more intense. I was told in
a rushed examination that I maybe a
hernia. Could that be it? Everything I
read on hernia doesn't sound close to what
I'm experiencing.
What do you think?
