Black little scab in 2 year old bellybutton?

Anyone’s little one had a little browny/black scab in their bellybutton. Is it safe to pull out or should doctors do this? Or do I leave it? It’s been there for a little while!

Could be a skin tag, I’d leave it and have a doctor look at it.

Looks like a naval stone to me, which is a build up of dead skin/dirt ect and due to her belly button shape shes probably more susceptible to them.. have you tried giving it a squeeze? X

Navel stone you can take it out with tweesers

It could be some sort of scar tissue form the umbilical cord. Apparently after 30 years of not knowing I had this it appeared during pregnancy as I started to get bigger. Never knew it was there before as it was so far in but now it’s being pushed out

Yeah I think it’s a navel stone too but will double check with doctor before I start prodding it! Although it’s very tempted - one of those addictive gross things like popping spots ha!

My lo had black bits in her belly button for months so I finally just cleaned inside it during a bath and out it came!
