Why is my belly button so sore?

Inny or Outy?

Pierced?

Probably a touch of yeast infection. Wash, dry, apply a dab of yeast killing ointment.

have you used a new brand of soap recently? It could just be left over soap that irritated the skin, antibacterial soap (such as Dial) can do that.

have you recently been abducted, or recall dreaming about bright lights?

no but really, it probably became irritated somehow, whether you made a small scratch or something. I’m sure the body will heal itself.

keep your fingers outta there

@RandomMrdan is right. Aliens have been abducting you secretly in the night and performing all manner of morose and inhumane experiments on you using a usb 4.0 cable from their otherworldy laptops directly to your outie.

Are you allergic to the fabric in your shirt? How are your nipples? xD

Yeasty belly buttons! GROSS!

Hernia? Maybe it’s just in the bellybutton area, but not actually your BB.?

inny and it huuuurts…what’s a hernia?

@gualitycontrol – a hernia occurs when the inside layers of the abdominal wall weaken then bulge or tear, sometimes requiring sugery to repair.

may be a hernia, unless the pain radiates toward the right half of your abdomen, in which case it could be your appendix. You should definitely visit a doctor soon, and avoid exerting yourself or doing any kind of lifting.

I discovered I had a small cut in my belly button that somehow got infected…I just applied some antibiotic ointment now it’s allll better

@qualitycontrol – whew!
