Hi, I am a 58 year old male in excellent health, not overweight, fit and slim. Dont look my age. Have been doing some manual work in the garden lately so that has helped me keep flexible etc.

Over the last number of months, but particularly on two occasions - both I think - after eating a fry but not totally sure of that, I have had discomfort and soreness more like a dull nagging pain in the area over my naval and under - to the centre, not either side. I have been effected to the point where I wasnt standing straight as usual but a little bent forward. Sitting or lying down seems to help - standing seems to aggravate it. If I press down on my stomach area, there is no point or section where the soreness or pain is more acute so I cannot detect an exact location. I have no other problems such as constipation etc. Normally the pain eventually goes and doesnt occur again for a long period in between. I think it feels like cramps ? No blood in stools etc, diarrhoea etc - If it was a hernia I think I would feel it ???? I think my abdomen looks a little swollen but not sure ???

Any help would be appreciated.
