Has anyone here had a paraumbilical hernia?

I think I might have one of these, but not sure. I have a soft, fleshy lump, not quite as large as a pachinko ball, on the upper wall of my navel. There's no pain or constipation, so I'm not sure if it's intestine or a fatty growth, etc.

I'm 6'2", 193 lbs, BMI=25. Used to be 225, BMI=28.9 (lost a lot of fat lately, kept my muscle.) So I was overweight, but not obese as most people who have this problem. I've had the lump for about five years.

Has anyone had a hernia in this region? I'll probably go to the doctor about it eventually. Surgery with local anesthesia is the treatment.

If its been 5 years and hasnt grown or caused any other problems...i doubt its a hernia...have no guesses as to what it could be though
