About a week ago I noticed my bellybutton was kinda sore, the other day I picked what looked like a scab or something out of it and it smelled pretty bad. So today I shaved the hair around it, looked at it good and noticed a little red bump inside my bellybutton,since then i've been cleaning it with peroxide and putting neosporin on it. I'm worried about it being a hernia...it's freakin me out!!!
When I touch it with the q tip a little blood get on it, its not bleeding but almost oozing.

I have that happen every once in a while as I am allergic to nickle and the snap on my jeans will rub on me if I don't have a band aide on the snap or a shirt tucked in. Or as stated before you may not have rinsed all the soap out of you belly button. Don't worry about a hernia that is not a sign.

You might have had a boil or large pimple there or an infeciton. Keep in clean and dry, which I realize is hard to do, and at night let air get to it. If it doesnt heal you nead to see a Dr. A hernia would be a much larger lump.
