Suggest Treatment For Pressure Sensation And Lump In Navel Area
I m a 21 year old female. I ve had problems with my stomach in the past and still sometimes do. But recently I ve felt a weird type of pressure around my belly button/naval area for about 2 weeks. About 3 days ago I noticed a big pink lump growing out of my belly button also producing a horrible smeeling liquid puss. Went the the emergency room and they haven t seen anything like it in years..and had no answers for me. Any ideas?

Hello,
You got belly button infection by bacteria. That is why getting a foul-smelling discharge. You have to clean thoroughly with soap and water or with hydrogen peroxide solution dry and apply antibiotic ointment. Try T bact ointment for external use.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
