I noticed in the shower this morning that I have a lump under my belly button about the size of a quarter. It doesnt hurt, and I don't have a nurses hotline number to call or anything? Anyone else ever heard of this or experience this before? TIA!

    Could be a vein or when fat tissue feels lumpy.

    As long as its not hot, red or swollen should be nothing.
