What is wrong with you if your belly button hurts to touch? i use peroxide in it to clean a lot.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stop peroxide: First i'd try stopping the peroxide you're using a lot--you may be reacting to that. If it's not red, not having purulent discharge (pus), leave it alone and give it some time. If it's not improving, or if you get signs of an infection, please get it checked out by your doctor.
