Causes Only In Men
Some causes of the pain in the left belly button only affect men. These include:
– Testicular torsion: This condition causes the testicle to rotate, which reduces blood flow to the organ and leads to severe swelling and pain. The cause is still unclear. It is more common in young people between 12 and 16 years old.
– Inguinal hernia: This problem occurs when a part of the small intestine or fat pushes through a weak spot in the lower abdomen. [4]
