I have a very deep navel. ive never actually seen the bottom. i just tried cleaning it, which i normally dont do because its a bit painful. after doing so, i saw trace amounts of blood. did i just irritate the skin, or is it something of concern?

You are asking a great question can need to be answered by having an in-person examination. I can't be certain but its likely you irritated the skin. See your primary care doctor
