Hi. Thanks for your query. Read the history of removal of the gall bladder and appendix. This must have done by the Laparoscopy approach. The pain in the belly button where you feel like someone is sticking his finger in the belly button from inside. Hurts bad sometimes, and now you have undergone a Surgery for neck problem. My probable diagnosis is :You have got a primary or secondary umbilical hernia. And I would advise you the following:-First get investigated and clinical / physically examined by a General Surgeon. If the hernia is present you have to undergo the formal surgery for getting the problems solved.
