Thank you for allowing me to explain. No smell, however found a small black insect therein, could not define exact typ of insect, expecting that it was definstely not a flea. I Haney since been prescribed Claihexil hm 500xl. My naval is still inflamed, however it may be as a result of the quad riders while I am applying as indicated but the skin is peeling? I use it every 2nd day, What could be the cause theeof ? Thank you . June regards Jeanette Hebrin

Hello,

I can understand your concern for naval inflammation along with peeling skin. After reviewing your query with best diligence I can make out a possibility of infection f the umbilical area.
In such kind of cases it is quite important to maintain a good hygiene. A course of antibiotic can be taken in your kind of cases. A culture and sensitivity of the affected area could be of much help to decide the correct antibiotic. I prefer to give topical antibiotics such as mupirocin or gentamycin till the you meet a doctor.
All the best.
