What Causes Abdominal Pain Along With Blood And Pus Discharge From Belly Button?

I have been experiencing some abdominal pain around my belly button. fluid is leaking from my belly button, ranges from clear, to somewhat bloody fluid. I was diagnosed with an infection and was given keeflex antiiotics for 7 days. the pain didn t subside until the last day, but the fluid continued for a week and pain has returned. I went back into a walk in clinic and a diff doc figured it was possibly a hernia. did not prescribe more anitbiotics

Hello,

The symptoms can be related to an umbilical hernia. The treatment consists in surgery. Meanwhile, I suggest to avoid bloating which might trigger the symptoms.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
