A member asked:

My partner has discharge of blood coming out of her belly button is this to do with goulbladder?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No.: There is no connection between the belly button which is outside the body and the gallbladder which is deep in the interior. This is irritation or superficial infection of the belly button. Clean out with soap and water. Apply topical antibiotic ointment until cured.
