What Is The Causing Sharp Stinging Pain On Left Side Of Belly Button?

yesterday, I started having a very sharp stinging pain on my left side about three inches from my belly button. nothing really helps, but nothing really causes a trigger. stretching may help but it may also hurt. bending usually triggers but not always. it is a very isolated spot.

Hi. IS there a bulge also on straining? Are there associated other complaints like loose motions , burning urination? If not this can very well be a hernia. It is better to show to a Surgeon.
