Thank you for your question and photograph. It is difficult to see the incision line around your belly button to know what may be taking place, but if your surgeon feels that your belly button is infected, this often requires a course of antibiotics and local wound care. This can involve simply applying a clean gauze to the belly button to keep things dry, placement of an antibiotic ointment, or occasionally wound packing. Your surgeon is in the best position to help you heal, and I would recommend you keep an open line of communication with them about changes in the appearance of your belly button so that they can make the appropriate care recommendations.
