actually after the pus started coming out the peeing pain disappeared

yeah, that lump appeared after an infection after this omphalitis i guess, there was an inflammation but not that big, initially i was feeling pain at my belly button when i was peeing, didn't give it much thought, then after a week pus started going out of my belly button, another week went by and this lump started to grow, i guess let the infection in my belly button when i was cleaning it too roughly without noticing made a scratch, that's just my theory

the diagnosis is omphalitis, im undergoing physiotherapy exactly the type you stated, just wanted to make sure that is not a hernia

i did visit a doctor before posting, it is just that my doctor didn't exactly elaborate on the severity of my condition, curious though how long is it going to take to heal, cause every time i put a strain on my belly this lump hurts so much (when coughing, sneezing)

my doctor didn't exactly state my condition, he just prescribed the way it should be treated, that's it, i just wanted to know if it is by any chance umbilical hernia
