Guest guest Posted July 16, 2001 Report Share Posted July 16, 2001 Hi all, about a week ago and then again tonight my 7 year old told me his belly button hurts. I assume this means something inside located behind the belly button. Anyone know what's there (stomach, liver, intestines?) or what this might indicate? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The stomach is above the belly button, at about the level of the elbow if the arm is down at his side and slightly to the left of midline. The liver is just under the ribs on the right side of the body. Directly behind the belly button are the intestines. Slightly below the belly button in midline is the bladder.. Could be anything. I'd probably have it checked out if it persists if it were me.. Good luck.
