Did ER. Side Of The Belly Button Is On Fire Movement. When Still, It Reduces. Have Bowel Movement After Eating. CT, Ultra Normal. Prognosis?
I went to the ER last night. The right side of my belly button is on fire movement makes it worse and causes it to linger longer. If i am still it happens less often and does not hurt as bad, when I eat I immediatly am having a bowel movement within 10-15 minutes. My ct and ultra sound were normal. Please tell me why it is burning. It is not affected by food.

Hello there!
Bowel movements usually are there every 15 to 30 seconds. Foods add to the strength of them. Its the intrinsic MMC migrating myoelectric complexes which propels the food and keep it moving. This is the way how GIT works.
Now your burning movements is i am pretty sure innocuous. As your investigations have come clean and you dont have any active symptom like diarrhoea or vomit or some fever to manage for.
All you need is to modify diet,. Avoid western diet, Take alot of fluids. Take fibers. Use regular meals and excercise regularly . Adaptation to healthy lifestyle will be of help and you start feeling better.
If the problem persisted you can see a gastro enterologists for these borborygmis.
Right now there is nothing to worry about
Cheers
