My belly button is hypersensitive my whole life if you touch it. how do you clean it out with it being so sensitive??? is this normal?

No need?: Perhaps you don't need to clean out the belly button - does it get red, swollen, or drain? If not just leave it alone and wash normally in tub / shower with soap.
