Discharge from belly butt
I have an infection around the belly button area. There has been a discharge of pus from that. I have applied soframycin initially and then Fucidin cream(sodium fusidate ointment). The discharge has reduced but still there is redness and irritation around the are. I have taken antibiotics and anti inflammatory tablets(zerodol).
Today there was a discharge of some hairy material as well (supposedly umbilical cord)
Please suggest what should I do.

Hi
Consult a surgeon for proper examination as it could be pilonidal sinus.
