What Causes Subcutaneous Cyct Above The Navel?

Hello Doctor. I am a 27 year old male in general good health. I am smoker though.For at least 10 years i have had this fluid filled sac type thing under the skin directly above my bellybutton. When i push on it feel like i am pushing fluid out of this sac. if i wait an hour or so the fluid fills up again. This causes me no pain or discomfort at all. But i am a little concerned of what it could possibly be. Any ideas?

General Surgeon 's  Response
hi.

it could be a case of a urachal cyst. i advise you to consult with a general surgeon for physical examination, diagnostic confirmation and subsequent management (medical and surgical).

hope this helps.
