What Causes Redness And Irritation In The Navel?
I had a itching sensation around the outside of my belly button. When I rub it I slipped my index finger into my belly button and felt a rawness. Upon inspection I discovered a raw, red irritation engulfing by belly button and spreading outward. Any thoughts?
