Hi I had pain yesterday in my belly button area. I felt I wanted to fart but I couldn t. I felt like cuddling or laying down on my bed all warm and take some hot tea to feel better. I had eaten that day chips with limes and this not so spicy powder. Should I not eat spicy foods?

Do these symptoms come often then it may be acid peptic disorder. Get an ultra sound abdomen done to rule out any other pathology. Do take good care of your food habits like fiber full diet ;fruits ; lots of water.you should avoid tea;coffee and spicy food for time being. During acute phase of pain you can take antacids. If constipated take mild laxatives.If not improved see a doctor.
