Pain Near Belly Button, Hurts To Cough Or Stand. What Is This?

Almost evey month I get this sharp pain on left side of my belly button and it feels like a string is connected to my clitoris, it hurts to stand straight, or even cough cause my belly pushed out when I do and so it gives me sharp pain on the left side of belly button, Today I got it from carrying grocery s in the car and turning to place the bags in the back and the sharp pain started hurt so bad I tried to breath in an out like I was giving birth. The pain is still there for about an 1 1/2 hours already since the grocery incident, and it is ok if I lay down, and not move suddenly, but its taking away from things that need to get done What could this be? I m tired of it already, my doctor doesn t even know. I need answers.

Hi,
From your history it appears that you might be having Umbilical hernia gives typically pain or discomfort while stand up or doing some weight lifting or coughing.
Consult surgeon and get it diagnosed.
Avoid constipation, lifting heavy weight or cough reflex.
Ok and take care.
