Painful belly button

Hi,

Since my period began last week I've had a painful belly button. My lap scar is swollen, red and today has begun leaking brown and clear fluid. It looks like there is maybe loose skin like a burst blister in there? My last operation was 2 years ago. It hurts to the touch and when I bend over. I'm also a bit dizzy but that might be unrelated.

Is this endo or something else? I can never get a doctor's appointment, it's always try again tomorrow. I often get weird things with my period like bloodshot eyes and nosebleeds but this is a new one!

Thanks

I would personally go to the walk in centre or a&e if your scar is leaking. Definitely worth having it looked at. Hope your okay

That sounds like an infection. Definitely get it checked out.

Infection highly probable- go to A & E or walk in to GP’s and pull your shirt up for them to write a immediate referral for A &E
