What Causes A Large Lump Under The Navel?

Hi, I m very scared and concerned about a small firm lump the size of a grape that has appeared DIRECTLY below my belly button. It is no more than half an inch away from the navel, and it feels stiff yet tender when i touch it, and i can move it around as well. I was just feeling my stomach about three days ago, and i felt it. it was so ironic because i had unprotected sex about 7 days ago and took Plan v not even the next day. Point is, im very nervous and anxious to know what it is... I know it s not a hernia, since it isn t placed anywhere near where they say, and it s so small. Please, can you tell me what it is?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Welcome at HCM
I have gone through your query and being your physician i completely understand your health concerns.
For how long u are suffering from it? Any history of TB in past or exposure to TB? Are u running fever? Any other lymph node swelling in your body?
You need to be examined by the surgeon so that you can be properly managed. it may be a cyst , lipoma , boil, muscle hematoma etc.
meet your attending doctor.
Meanwhile stay calm and use acetaminophen to relieve pain
Get well soon
Hope your query is adequately addressed if you still have any feel free to ask
Regards
