Why do i have a dark navel?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can't be sure: If you take an ear bud & soap to the area you may find it is darker from the buildup of dead skin.It is a hard area to get the old skin off without effort. It may be something else, but I can't think of anything bad it would represent.
