pain stomach above belly button

Its very painful right above my belly button and feels like a band that stretches across my stomach. It also radiates up into my boobs and the side of my ribs sometimes. I have no idea what it is. Does anyone know what this could be?

hello, as i said the pain (if the word pain is correct) is not at the belly button, but it's ABOVE it, about an inch or more, on an area that measures 4 inches width and 2 inches height. why do you suggest a small bowel x-ray?

Hey ladies, have you ever had stomach pain in very early pregnancy that it felt like you did 500 situps in your sleep?

Ive sat on the couch lol. And swimming but i kinda just laid in the pool the whole time.

Hi there, could you elaborate on where exactly your pain is occurring? Your stomach is located above your uterus, so the area of pain should be clearly distinct. It's not uncommon for women to experience indigestion and heartburn more often when pregnant, so you make be having an episode of this. If you feel nauseated, that is also a very common symptom of pregnancy.

Could I have an ulcer? I have stomach pain around my belly button and above - pain goes through to my back. Pain severe when I waken in the morning until I get up (strange) Pain is worse when I am lying down. When I eat, the pain goes away for a couple of hours, then comes back.

I started getting these pains about an inch above my belly button and to the right. They don't last very long, but they are sharp. Not so much that it is an agonizing pain, but definitely noticeable and different. They come and go when I am just sitting doing nothing. I am just about 21 weeks. Has anyone else experienced this?

right now i am 31 weeks and it is above my belly button and it is really bad

Have you doctor look into it everyone is different I would assume it is because your uterus has streched almost ti your belly button and it it pushing everything out of the way to make room. I have pain on or around my belly button but I have an umbilical hernia.

i would call your doctor and ask him about it ive neve rhad that with either of my 2 pregnancies

Hi All, Its been some time since I have been on but again, I need your help. My husband is 52 with Hep C and cirrohsis. He has been through the treatment and it did not work. Now it has been approx 3 mos later and he is having consistant pain in the stomach. The pain is not in the area of the liver it is about 2 inches above the belly button and extending to about 3" below the belly button. He says these pains feel like really bad gas pains. Does anyone know what this is from?

The doctor said my next check-up would be June. I am having intermittent sharp burning pain above my belly button, I can feel something hard there. I told dr in March that area was tender and it was swelled. He did not really say anything, so I figured it had to do with incision. To me the swelling is still there, is this something anyone else has experienced, could this be a Hernia? The last couple of days it has begun to hurt a little more.

I'm having this sharp stabbing pain to the right of my belly button and above my belly button. Its not unbearable or even hurts that bad but I've never had it before. It feels like a needle going into my stomach. It hurts worse when my bladder is full and usually quits hurting after I go pee. Has anyone had this before? Could it be another uti?

Hey ladies!! I'm 17 weeks and my stomach from my belly button down to right above my vagina (a little below waistline) is really hard, like rock hard. I'm wondering is this the baby? Above my belly button isn't hard, it's right below and even when I lay down it's hard. I'm just wondering if this is the baby or just my uterus?? Haven't felt any kicks or movements yet though. I'm a FTM by the way!! Thanks!!

8-year old son has had stomach pain for the last 5 years(located just above his belly button and slightly to the right). He has has x-rays, ultra sound, testing of stool all with no results. It is severe enough it does interfere with his sleep. He has a good appetite but can only eat small meals. In addition he is very small for his age 52 lbs and 45" tall; and his skin is now pasty looking and he usually has rings under his eyes, but no allergies.

I had the same problem, turns out I have a hernia slightly above and to the left of my belly button. It hurt like **** until my uterus grew up past it. Now it rarely hurts, but when it hurts it hurts bad. Dr says it should go away after the baby is born...

Every few months I wake in the night with extremely sharp periumbilical pain - it feels like a stabbing pain just above my belly button (from inside). Last night it happened again, I took pain killers (Panadeine, Panadeine Forte, and an NSAID) and after about 15 minutes the pain had subsided enough to get some sleep, then a couple of hours later it all happened again.
