Best Answer

No a smelly navel is simply a navel that hasn't been wash properly during bathing or showering. Lymphatic matter collects in the folds of the umbilical knot* (*belly button) and starts to generate an odour. Simply having a bath and washing the navel with antibacterial soap and rinsing well with warm water will resolve this issue.
