welcome to Health care magic.
1.First need to evaluate the cause of the swelling.
2.Its bit difficult to understand the location you have said.
3.In this case i would suggest an ultrasound abdomen pelvis - which will covers all the areas and underlying pathologies.
4.At the same time it will detect presence of any lump or anterior abdominal wall defect.
5.Get an appointment with your GP and examines.
6.Remedy regarding pillow can not be said because cause itself is not clear.
Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
