What Could The Red Ring On Belly Button During Pregnancy Be?

Hello, I am between 20 and 23 weeks pregnant and I have a belly, but I have a red ring around my belly button, I have only noticed it the past couple days or so, it is more faint, not too noticable, but should this be a concern or just from my belly stretching? Any information helps. Thank You!

Hi.
This is a small concern as this is a rare finding.
This can be even a fungal infection if the skin.
It is better that you show this to your Gynecologist and preferably to Dermatologist as the medicines have to be safe for the baby, as you are pregnant.
I find this answer helpful
