I have a sac filled with blood and pus in my belly button. if i push down a little bit just about it - whitish-yellow pus spews out. it is very itchy and this morning I woke up with it full of dried blood. I dont see a cut or anything, but I dont know where the pus is coming out from. It started hurting 5 days ago and it started pusing 3 days ago. I amwondering what it is caused by and what to put on it.
Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concern. As per your complaint it seems to be bacterial infection in the navel leading to formation of a pus filled abscess. As the navel is the area where there can be accumulation of moisture, there can be bacterial accumulation, and it leads to formation of abscess. I would suggest you to clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply triple antibiotic ointment and steroid ointment over it. You can take oral antibiotics like Augmenting for relief. You can apply mild pressure over the navel and try to Chat Doctor. . In case if still there is no relief consult a General Physician or Surgeon and get evaluated so that a proper clinical evaluation can help in diagnosis and treatment can be planned accordingly. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards.
