Answer 3

Why would you smell your belly button?

It doesn't really matter if it smells, because I doubt anyone else is going to sniff your belly.  

Answer 4

Use a loofa to really scrub in there.  There could be build up from stuff that a normal rag doesn't get out.

Answer 5

how the h**l do you smell your bellybutton?? i mean i know im not that flexable but come on...

Answer 6

Clean it out now and then. When you shower, make sure you dry it properly or it will get buildup of dirt/scum/mould stuff.

Answer 7

because its a little black hole! its rarely exposed to sunlight and air, so bacteria like it.

even though you shower, i'm sure you don't hop in and automatically say "k, time to clean my belly button" i mean... no one does. it's not the first thing anyone's list. try cleaning it out with a q-tip and some hydrogen peroxide. from now on, whenever you're in the shower, be sure to get in there real good with an antibacterial body wash. also, when you get out of the shower, remember to dry it out. bacteria like wet, dark, small spaces. don't let them like your belly button.

and don't worry, it's completely normal. :) but i hope this helps your problem get better.
