What Makes My Belly Button Bleed? Then It Turns Into A Smelly Crustation.

Have you had it pierced? If so, and you are allergic to nickel (a very common allergy) and have put metal adornments on or over it, that could cause what you have described. If you have a metal button on jeans like a stud set button, the portion of the button that touches your skin could cause a reaction like you have described. If it has been pierced, and exposed to bacteria, that could cause such a reaction. If none of the above mentioned possibilities apply, then I suggest that you go to a Dr. To get an answer, and/or if you have an infected bellybutton, you probably should see a Dr. To have it treated.

If it is pierced you should know never to pick off crusties or to pull the dried crusties and the ring away from the actual hole in your navel. The proper way to remove crusties is by soaking the piercing in warm salt water, or plain warm water and wiping them away with a steril q-tip. When you pull crusties off it causes rips and tears thus the bleeding.

If it is not from a piercing go to the doctor.
