It is narrated from Hazrat Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) came while he was experiencing some discomfort. Then he performed Tawaf riding on a camel. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a curved staff with him; whenever he passed by the Black Stone, he would touch it with the staff. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) completed the Tawaf, he dismounted from the camel and then performed two rak‘ahs (units of prayer).
