What are Reasons for navel removal?
A navel may leave an unattractive scar if the umbilical cord was cut badly by the doctor at birth. Or it may be removed for personal aesthetic reasons. People may also not want to deal with navel lint, the smell, and having to clean it.
How do you clean your belly button?
The technique for cleaning a navel depends on the type of debris that is loading the navel and if the navel is convex or concave (outie or innie). If you are encountering common navel lint, you should be able to purge a concave navel digitally. Now, that does not mean you should stick your computer in your navel, that simply means that your fingertip should be enough to sweep the lint out. In stubborn cases, you might consider enlisting the aid of a fellow navel cleaner to assist. Cooperative navel hygiene is a strong bonding activity. High pressure air (greater than 30 psi) should be avoided as should high pressure steam. Ensure that you do not use sharp objects. Avoid prolonged picking at your navel because you might accidentially un-knot your navel. If you have ever seen what an unknotted balloon does when you release it, that should give you cause for concern.
What causes belly button lint?
Many people find that, at the beginning and end of the day, a small lump of fluff has appeared in the navel cavity. The reasons for this have been the subject of idle speculation for many years but in 2001, Dr. Karl Kruszelnicki of the University of Sydney, Australia undertook a systematic survey to determine the ins and outs of navel lint. His primary findings were as follows:Navel lint consists primarily of stray fibres from one's clothing, mixed with some dead skin cells and strands of body hair. The rotting cells can create unpleasant odors.Contrary to expectations, navel lint appears to migrate upwards fromunderwear rather than downwards from shirts or tops. The migration process is the result of the frictional drag of body hair on underwear, which drags stray fibres up into the navel.Women experience less navel lint because of their finer and shorter body hairs. Conversely, older men experience it more because of their coarser and more numerous hairs.Navel lint's characteristic blue-gray tint is likely the averaging of the colors of fibres present in clothing; the same color as clothes dryer lint.The existence of navel lint is entirely harmless, and requires no corrective action.

Is a smelly navel normal?
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.

Buy a lint roller, or a lint brush. And lint the knit BEFORE wearing it, and after you put it on to make sure all lint is removed. Also, it helps if you have someone lint you so they can get all areas. :-)
