Question

I'm noticing this small swelling on my belly button that's been there for about a month now. Lately, my stomach's felt kind of bloated and I've been having some gas issues. Also, I feel kind of uneasy after eating meals. Should I be concerned about this, and what might be causing it?

The persistent swelling around your belly button, accompanied by bloating, gas issues, and discomfort after meals, may indicate a possible umbilical hernia, intestinal obstruction, or gastrointestinal issue such as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS); consult a general surgeon or gastroenterologist for a thorough examination
