Suggest Treatment For Lump Near Navel While Treating Dehydration

I m a 35 year old AA Male who was at a friends house last Saturday and had been out in the sun for a while with he and his daughter at the park. Admittedly I didn t drink enough water, was hungry, but began drinking beer (4 total) when I got to his house. After I ate I fell asleep and woke up very dehydrated. I went to got up off the couch and entered the kitchen where I began to feel dizzy and my eyes went blurry as I fell uncontrollably to the ground into the refrigerator, neck first, on my front left center side, but remained conscious the entire time. My friends rushed over to help me up and I asked them for water and began drinking it rapidly. I initially had pain on my right side and felt numb but slept it off and felt better the next day. I went to the gym last Monday to work out the kinks but didn t do bench as my shoulder was still sore until Tuesday. When I attempted to start my set my left arm did a funky chicken/noodle wobble as I struggled to push the 225lbs off me without dropping it on my chest, with most of the weight being placed on my right arm. I m not sure if it happened before or after but I have a lump between my belly button and love handle on my right side, which doesn t hurt, about half an inch in diameter. Thoughts?

Hello,

You are suggested to get clinically examined; you may need a few bottles of saline infusion intravenously so that your vitals get normal. It will help you become comfortable. You may need to get Imaging tests of the affected arm & required investigations (CT or ultrasonography, biopsy) done for the lump near the navel to detect umbilical hernia, incisional or inguinal hernia.

Other medical conditions that can cause similar symptoms are lipoma, hematoma, tumor, etc. Your treatment will depend on the diagnosis made. At present stay at rest & do not stress. Take food in time and stay adequately hydrated. you can take analgesics if there is pain in your arms where you were hurt.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
