Does my belly button look concerning after the glue was pulled off by the binder? (photos)

mckenza
I am 3 weeks post op from a TT. My binder just pulled the glue off my belly button. It was bleeding a little around the edges. There is still a little glue on it (brown part) and some of the skin is very white. I washed it with antibacterial soap and covered it with gauze. The shower made the picture appear a little redder than it actually is. Should I put any ointment on it? Does any of this seem concerning? TY for your feedback!
