HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I can understand your problem it could be "red rose bud" a kind of residual part of umbilical cord it may grow later on it is very rare condition seen among the adult but fairly common in pediatric age group, now it need to be excised I would advise you to consult a surgeon and no need to worry it will be alright with minor surgical procedure haven nice day.
