Suggest Treatment For Lump On The Left Side Of Navel And Low Back Pain

Hi, I am a 43 year old female. I am very overweight but have always been in good health. However, recently I have found a lump that is movable and soft on the left side of my belly button. It is pressing in and and begininng to close my belly button on that side. Also I have noticed changes in my bowel movement frequency (more frequently)and maybe in my urination (more frequent) as well. I have also just developed a slight lower back ache. Any ideas of thoughts on what it could mean and what I should do?

welcome to Health care magic.
1.If its felt superficial and reducing in size on pressure then its a hernia. It could be a large cyst arising from adnexa if it felt inside.
2.Other mass lesions can not be ruled out.
3.In your case i wild ask for a ultrasound abdomen pelvis to identify the mass and where it is extending from.
4.Get an appointment nearest you can get and ask for an ultrasound abdomen pelvis.
5.And needful things can be done.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
