Doctor explains the danger of umbilical cord dirt (@ dr.karanr)
When it comes to maintaining body care and hygiene, people tend to ignore their navel.
Following a hard-to-watch video showing what might be inside there - a qualified doctor took the opportunity to remind us all how important it is to wash and clean our navel daily to prevent the formation of bacteria and infections.
Most umbilicals have grooves that can store dirt inside them and form a fertile pad for growing bacteria.
A study published in 2012 found that 67 different types of bacteria are found in the navel of the average person - so cleaning on a regular basis is especially important.
Tiktok user crinc_3 discovered in a painful way what might be hiding in the pelvis, when she offered to help her husband clean his after he told her that his navel was starting to hurt.
She was shocked when she started digging in his navel and pulled out something yellowish and nauseous looking.

The ticking star and NHS doctor, Dr. Karen Rajan, shared the video himself and explained that if someone develops white, brown or yellow discharge that seeps from his navel - an infection is likely to be brewing there
. A regular base can grow a name for him as "jewelry."
If the area is not flushed on a regular basis, this material can accumulate and harden to a haze - umbilical cord.
"Navel stones come in a wide variety of colors, usually black, but they can also come in a light brown color."
And here is the full explanation of the Dr.:

Navel stones may form mainly in people with poor hygiene, with very deep navels or people who are overweight.
Our navel is a breeding ground for bacteria because it is a "dark and damp" area where skin is often laid on top of skin - resulting in infections and unpleasant odors.
Candidiasis (a fungal infection), for example, is unavoidable if you do not clean the navel area properly.
In conclusion - rinse your belly button well in every shower, or at least in every second shower, and even be afraid to occasionally rummage inside to make sure you have not left "jewelry" behind.
In addition, it is recommended to clean the belly button several times a week with a cotton ball dipped in warm water with soap, and this can be done after the shower.
