[|Human|] I have been having a dull pain in my abdominal all day. Tonight it is sharper but bearable. There is a place kto the left side of my belly button that feels swollen and hurts really bad to touch.  Im not throwing up and was able to eat dinner. What could this be.
[|AI|]  Hi. Thanks for your query. Noted the history and understood your concerns. The commonest causes of pain and selling on the left side of umbilicus is as follows:Ileitis meaning inflammation of small bowel which usually accumulates on the left side of abdomen on getting stuck together and may happen in cases of typhoid, tuberculosis and so on. Left para-umbilical hernia. I would advise you the following in such a situation:Get a clinical evaluation by a General Surgeon. CT scan of abdomen. Tests of blood, stool and urine. These will help to get a proper diagnosis so that a proper management can be done. Be on liquid diet only so that further evaluation is possible and treatment becomes easy.
