Aloe vera can be used to help heal a belly button infection. It has anti-inflammatory and soothing properties that can ease pain and promote quick healing.
- Cut open an aloe vera leaf and extract the gel.
- Apply this gel on the belly button and allow it to dry on its own.
- Clean the area with a wet tissue and pat dry with a soft towel.
- Repeat several times a day until the infection is gone.

Turmeric can also be used to keep belly button infections at bay. It is a natural antiseptic and antibiotic agent that can heal as well as prevent infection.
- Prepare a paste with a little turmeric powder and water. Apply this paste on the affected area and leave it on until it dries. Wipe it off with a tissue and keep the area dry. Do this 2 or 3 times a day to reduce pain and prevent the infection from spreading.
- You can also mix 1 teaspoon of turmeric powder and a little honey in a glass of hot milk. Drink it daily before going to bed to promote internal healing.

I treated my belly button infection by using pyodine (medical iodine) just in a day i was relieved. Use it w cotton bird.
I used the olive oil and tea tree oil for my Red irrataed navel. It worked fantastic! My navel was dark red and painful. No discharge that I saw. Think it happened due to wearing spanx and sweating. I used this mixture twice a day for 4 days and it completely cleared up. There was substantial improvement after one day. I highly reccomend this treatment
