I had my tummy tuck 8/24/2009 and my belly button had a smelly discharge as well. My doctor said it was not cleaned properly which I disagree because I cleaned it with alcohol daily. I started putting Neosporin on it two weeks ago and it finally healed.
Did you contact your doctor's office and tell them this was happening; If so, what did he say?
I hope all works out okay.

Hi Donna
I did not have that problem but I have always been told that if you have a smelly discharge from an incision it is not good. It can mean an infection. I suggest you see your doctor as soon as you can!
I hope all is well and healed soon!

Hi!
I'm surprised that after almost 1 year you having a problem....I would call the surgeon especially since you said it's getting worse.

i am going to the dr. in 2 weeks. My doc is out of state, so i have to wait. the problem is... that it is projectile discharge...like if i push on my belly, it oozes out, and once it squirted out and smells like DEATH!!! it is so embarassing and i didnt really want to post that, but i want to know if it has happened to anyone else...
