I'm really worried because my belly button is sore and there's this clear, thin discharge coming out of it that smells really bad. What could be causing this, and should I be concerned?
I recommend using an antibiotic ointment like Neosporin twice a day on the affected area. Additionally, you can take an over-the-counter pain reliever like Tylenol for any discomfort. Make sure to keep the area clean and dry. If the symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional for further evaluation.
