Every now and then for the past 8 mths, I have pain near my belly button. It progressed and the pain started getting worse. Then, I started noticing dried blood in my navel but I could never seem to catch it when it early enough to see my doctor. It was always when I was about to take a shower. I told two doctors, they just said it may be my hernia which was very small. Finally, Iafter 5 mths was able to realize that the pain and blood only came around the time before and after my cycle. I went to my ob/gyn when I actually did have the blood in my navel and it turned out to be ENDOMETRIOSIS!!!. I just had surgery two weeks ago to remove the endometrium from around my navel and now I'm in the process of figuring out what I need to do to conceive. This came at a time when I just got engaged so my fiance has been very supportive. Ladies, don't let your doctors tell you it's nothing. I had symptoms of endometriosis from the year before but my doctor said it was just small cysts.
I am having alot of pain in and around my belly button. I have no leakage or smells. Just alot of pain.
I have belly button pain when ever I go to the bathroom or if I stretch my back its as if someone were pulling a string from the inside of my belly button. No liquids or smell comming from it yet. Anyone else with the same symptoms?

I too have a smell from my belly button. It is natural. Just clean it when you bathe. I do use peroxide and it seems to help!
Hey, I had a problem with my belly button similar to yours. My belly button had been leaking and smelling for a couple of years and then I got my belly button pierced. It was pierced in Mar and in July I was surfing in Tofino BC when blood started to leak out of my stomach. I went to the emergency, they initially thought it was appendicitis, then ruled that out and put me in the hospital for about a week. The whole time they were trying to say it was an infection from the piercing but it had been leaking for years before I got the ring. No one listened to e and they kept telling me it was because of the piercing. The second night I was in the hospital this happened: just below my belly button near my lower abs my stomach swelled up and looked like a big pimple. The Drs sent me for a CAT scan and told me there was a cherry size something inside me. They were going to remove it surgically but then my belly button turned from an inny to an outty. At this time puss was big time leaking from my belly button along with a mixture of blood. The nurse came into my room checked it out and refilled my morphine, then we started playing with it. She pushed on the swelled up area just like a pimple and my belly button drained out puss and blood...It was awesome. eventually she told me she could see something coming out. My belly button gave birth to an object that was about the size of a cube of sugar or some dice but in a couple pieces with the consistancy of cheese. Really weird. Anyway, it was weird, they supposedly tested it for whatever they test for and decided to release me from the hospital 4 days later. As soon as I gave birth to whatever that cheesy like object was the pain and swelling went away, just like popping a zit when the pressure is released. The smell of that mess was the same smell I had been having for the previous couple of years with the leakyness and they still tried to say it was from the piercing. In the end I have never had another problem and the Drs say they have no idea what happened.
