Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Pain Around The Navel Region Long After Piercing?
I have been having pain in my belly button for 2 days now and I thought I might have irritated my naval piecing (which I had done 5 years ago). Then I noticed that my actual belly button has been bleeding. I m not sure if it matters, but I also have an IUD.
Pain and bleeding from umbilicus may be due to some infection. Swelling present around belly button? Better take antibiotics and ointments. Consult a doctor to avoid complication.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. C. Elanchezhian, General & Family Physician
