I have had the unpleasant "oozing belly button" few times. There are two things that have caused it for me. One is contact dermatitis as I am allergic to some metals. Zippers, snaps and buttons on jeans in particular are the culprit. I paint clear nail polish on the metal or look for pants/ jeans that have plastic closures. The other is actually related to a systemic yeast infection. I've battled yeast all my life and have to be extremely careful about eating sugar as sugar seems to give yeat a license to grow. My home treatment includes a gentle but thorough washing of the area, a gentle and thorough drying ncluding the use of a blow dryer and the application of 1 of two over the counter medications. Neosporin ointment, not creme, or vaginal yeast infection creme applied with a clean Q-tip clears it up in a day. Be sure you don't push the Q-tip in too far. Works for me everytime.
