My belly button has a scab inside it. I find myself picking at it and then when I do there is blood? I've had this once before but I guess it eventually went away. Anyhow it is very strange and I'm wondering if anyone else had dealt with this or knows what the cause could be.
Thank you.

MissM answered Sunday July 25 2010, 7:44 pm: It might just be a minor infection. This usually happens when you get a piercing on your belly button area. I don't know if you like piercings on your belly button :) but um, you should definately check that out. Research on belly button hernias and infections, and I recommend you to stop poking at it, at least not with your finger. If you feel tempted to poke at it, use a cotton swab and dip it in alcohol, the way you would normally treat a cut, scrape, or infected area. :) [ MissM's advice column | Ask MissM A Question ]
