Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having starting of umbilical hernia.
This might be due to weak abdominal recti muscles.
consult surgeon and get examined.
You may do abdominal recti muscle exercise to strengthen abdominal muscles to prevent further development of hernia.
avoid constipation and cough reflex.
Avoid heavy weight lifting.
Ok and take care.
