  1. First try pouring some hydrogen peroxide in there to foam out

    and loosen up the gunk.

    Then carefully use a Q-tip to clean out.

    Also... ONLY if the skin in there is not raw and irritated...

    use the Q-tip with some rubbing alcohol.

    Do you have a removeable shower head...the kind you can pull down

    and use all over your body parts?

    Try using that with nice hot water to plunge out the stuff.

    BUT..before doing ANY of these...call your local pharmacist and see

    if they can recommend something over-the-counter.

    (I wonder if ear canal cleaning stuff would work?

    Ask the pharmacist about that one)

    Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

    Good Luck.


  2. If your showering and cleaning that area properly everyday then maybe you need to go to the doctor. I don't think its an everyday occurrence. I don't get it anyway.

  3. wash your belly button n the shower and use a q-tip to clean it.

  4. Use a Q-tip and salt water (saline).  My wife has an incredibly deep belly button and it fills up with the same stuff you said.  The best thing that works for her is salt water and a Q-tip.  Salt water won't irrritate the area.  Don't use peroxide or alcohol, the area is too sensitive.  Try not to be too rough either.  You can't make it disapper permanently, you'll just have to continue cleaning it out.
