Smelly naval: 28 F I recently noticed moderate pain and smell in my naval. I also started provera and I'm wondering could this be the reason? Who do I see? PCP etc? ANS: Not likely related to Provera that I can think of. May just need to clean out belly button fuzz. Dr humor there. Would show to PCP if cleaning does not help.
