Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a soft lump at the top edge of my navel that feels like its hollow and can be pushed in but I get this feeling like I m pushing something in and my stomach feels weird when I do so. But when I flex my ab muscles it pokes out a bit and gets hard.
Hi, I think it can be an umbilical hernia. So, get examined by a surgeon. If it is a hernia, it needs to be treated surgically. Hope I have answered your question. if you have any other query I will be happy to help. Regards Dr khushboo
