Navel is infected, little blood, and painful. growth of ball shaped sensitive tissue blocking inside navel (was never there). what can i do for now?

Infected navel: this needs to be checked as soon as possible. This could be an abscess. You can clean with warm soap and water, keep covered, use triple antibiotic ointment twice a day until you can get to the DOCTOR.
