Discharge and Bleeding From My Belly Button

For quite a few months now I have been experiencing discharge and burning coming from my navel and it smells really bad, it's usually like a brownish whitesh color. I had hoped that this would go away, I've tried salt water and drying it after showers but still nothing.Also when i clean it off a rash occurs around the area.
Today was very scary it started bleeding (not a lot but still) and its burning, also last week i experienced really, really sharp lower back pains, to the point where it hurt to breathe and walk.I dont know if this relates to subject. I dont know what to do. Is there anything i can buy over the counter? Due to the fact that I do not have health insurance.

What I recommend for those with this problem, is to do water fast with powdered cayenne and turmeric to help cleanse your system of built up toxins and food debris that have become stuck in the digestive track.. Also, you may want to consider removing red meat from the diet completely as it does not pass through the digestive system well at all. With the system being clean and no longer toxic the bellybutton will not bleed or have these issues.

A CA-125 is a protein marker in the blood that is also used as a prognostic tool for following cancer cell growth for ovarian cancer.  It is also used to help determine if a woman might have ovarian cancer although it is not always accurate.

Please, all of you guys look into adenomyosis.  Tell your doctors you need MRIs, not ultrasounds.

hi a week ago i noticed my belly button start to smell and it was really bad, then i found alot of blood coming out and mucus or pus coming out to.. over the week the pain moved from belly button to just above my belly button the to the left of the belly button. i am worried hoping its not serious but i dont want to leave it til to late because i have a young son and if it is serious then want to get it fixed looked at as soon as possible but scared. i did have a pain in my upper back area a couple of weeks ago and comes back now again i dont know if that is related, just wondering.

I read a lot of women's comments, but my husband is having the issue. Ever so often, it comes and goes, his belly button will bleed. Not a lot a small amount n it is thick. Kinda like a bloody mucus. He says their is pain from his belly button to his penis. We don't have insurance so he is dealing but I would like to know if it could be a hernia or just an infection as some talk.
