What Causes Hard Lumps Close To Navel?

Hello, I have 2 pea sized hard lumps about 1 inch to the side of my belly button. I only found them the other day. I have no other symptoms. I don t think they move about and feel I can grab all of them within my soft tissue skin area. Have you any idea what this could be and my best course of action? I have had 3 c-sections the first one 8 years ago and the last one 2 years ago. The first one included a cut up to my belly button. Kind regards

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, as per the history given here the swelling that you noticed or the lump that you seen could be lipoma, second it could be the lymph node, else the clinical observation is the last judge, it has to be kept under observation for any changes, hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
