Skin Ripping?

I have a spot on my lower stomach (beneath my belly button) that I swear to God feels like it is about to rip open anytime I sit down or stand up (or really any large movement like that). It gets better if I remember to put pressure on it though. Anyone else have this? Its pretty new to me...

Re: Skin Ripping?

  • Yup, I had it on the bottom and right side of my belly button for about 4 weeks.  It finally stopped hurting, but DH said that he could definately tell my muscles didn't go all the way to my belly button, like it was just skin and fatty tissue behind/around my bellybutton.  I found myself rubbing that spot all the time while it was burning to help it so I understand the need for pressure.  Hope it gets better soon.

  • Is it actually your skin, or is it more of an "inside" feeling?  If it feels like it's skin related, can you lather up with some lotion?  I swear by it and have to put lotion on a few times a day - esp since it's winter and dry here.
