Re: Belly button infection? (TMI)

(Anonymous) 2016-03-15 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
I think doctors don't advise the use of hydrogen peroxide for cleaning up wounds because it can cause tissue damage and slow healing. Just water and a mild soap should be fine.

Monitor it for a while and pay attention to whether or not there's inflammation, pain or more pus. If you're absolutely sure it was pus, then it means your body is fighting off some sort of infection. Maybe there's a small breakage in the skin in your bellybutton that's difficult to see? Keep it clean and dry. If you're concerned, a small dab of antibiotic cream smeared around the edge/inside ought to help.

I don't think merely the act of being squeezed shut can cause this, but the fact that the belly button is typically a dark, humid environment means it's a good breeding ground for bacteria and subsequent infection.
