Question
What’s wrong with my belly button always being sticky and smelly?
Answer
The navel discharge is always sticky and milky, and it usually resolves without treatment. According to online information, it may be due to navel inflammation or navel infection, and in severe cases, surgery may be required. Traditional Chinese medicine believes this is due to heat toxin attacking the skin and the disease is a type of pain syndrome. It is recommended that you seek detailed examination and treatment at a hospital as soon as possible, and pay attention to maintaining a light diet in daily life.
