Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You have small periumbilical hernia in left side which doesn't subside even after lying.
Hernia is in the form of bulge and it doesn't flatten even after lying.
You may need surgical treatment for periumbilical hernia.
You should consult surgeon for the problem.
Hope i have answered your query.
Take Care
