In 2 days, I am 8 months out from RNY. In the last few days my bellybutton has started peeling. It is not sun burn. Now today it’s all red and burns. What is this ? I posted 2 pics below. P.S. I am a clean person and shower every day and don’t have any bellybutton piercings. I also haven’t had any surgery through my bellybutton. The RNY was performed with 6 laparoscopic incisions but none through the bellybutton. Help!!

I'd put some Neosporin on it and watch it. If it seems infected, off to the doctor. Good luck!

It could be a yeast infection.
