What Is The Treatment For Belly Button Pain?

Tuesday I began to notice a pain in my belly button after helping a few friends move a safe. The pain increased as time went on and rolled into today. I played with a bigger dog about two hours ago and my pain shot through the roof. I went home and looked at my belly button region and noticed a clear/pinkish discharge coming from my belly button. The pain is only present when I stand. What could be the issue, any advice helps.

Hi and welcome. It looks like this is omphalitis which is infection of belly button and this is benign condition that usually passes on its own but sometimes antibiotics are neccesary. In every case keep this area clean and dry. Wish you good health.regards
