Most common problem might be having some local infection like infection in umbilicus, dermatitis causing itching leading to some bleeding from umbilicus. There might be umbilical granulomma, which is again a common condition. Consult your doctor. Local examination will give exact nature of your problem. If require he may go for ultrasound examination to rule out any deep seated infection. Keep your umbilicus clean as due to depression in umbilicus may give rise to deposition of dust etc will give rise to infection. Apply triple acting cream after proper cleaning. I hope, I answered your query. If you have any further query or clarification, please ask. Ok and take care.
