Dear Sir,
I felt a small pain in belly button like a small pimple after few days . after 2-3 days The blood was like when you lance a boil, full of pus. This is happening quite frequently.I dont feel any pain as such in bellly button.
Its hapeening dor 1-2 days it's usually like a brownish whitesh color and sometimes blood is coming out. I had hoped that this would go away, I've tried salt water and drying it after showers .I dont know if this relates to subject. I dont know what to do. Is there anything i can buy over the counter?

See a doctor. It might just be a zit or a boil, but if it has been a few days, it's time to go get it checked.

GO TO THE DOCTOR RIGHT AWAY! This could be a sign of cancer or some other serious medical problem. If it turns out to be a boil, there is a product called Boil Eze that can be used to assist. Also, tried and true hydrogen peroxide generally can keep it clean and draws the infection out, followed by the use of triple antibiotic cream. Let the area get air- no band aids!
Go to the doctor to be sure there is not something more seriously wrong that is creating this infection to reoccur.

First clean area gently with soap and water.
Then using a Q-tip or Cotton Ball apply (OTC) peroxide to the area gently. Afterward use a dry Q-tip or cotton ball to gently dry the area in question.
Apply antibiotic cream (neosporin ointment) to the dry clean area.
Repeat daily for 7 to 10 days.
If it is not better after this amount of time you should consult you doctor.

You should go see ur doctor, but in the mean time put some peroxide in it, cause it is infected, it will boil the infection out, and keep it from getting more infected til u can see ur doctor.

i have the same thing going on right now, i didnt go to the doctor, but i asked my pharmacist and he suggested to clean it everyday with peroxide or something. if the problem still persisty after couple days, then u should run to the doctor. i followed his advise and actually its all good now. no infection or nothing. thank god. well i hope this helps. good luck.

While it took little less than two months for me to really see a difference, my acne, blackheads and whole lot of other skin problems I had such as eczema had completely cleared! It was totally amazing...

Why wouldn't you want to go see a Dr? They are the best chances you have to figure out whether this is something minor, or something big. Don't fool around. Call a dermatologist right away.

See a doctor—you need antibiotics and should not be fooling around with this yourself!

dude, that's gross, that's probably because you clean your belly button too much that's what my mom says. like if you touch it all the time with cotton balls or toothpick or whatever then it gets infected with bacteria and germs.
